      It’s like gamers grew tired of filling their storage with last generations games (maybe not last, but definitely 2 generations prior) media because we were told they wouldn’t run on the next system.

      Xbox S has actually brought me back to console gaming a bit because 1) my Internet is shit, and 2) I don’t have to buy it rent physical media (2.5 I can play the games on my laptop as well, but I rarely use it since I’ve gotten the deck).

      Valve, and to a lesser extent their deck, has filled that (niche is too small of a word) void nearly perfectly, valve and emulation has brought a dump truck and back hoe to the big 3’s garden party.
