I mean ive thought of this. I mostly do play pre 2002 games. And I'm always thinking wow, they put so much work into this, no vibe coded bullshit, no endless updates, working with difficult hardware , mad respect for those devs. And I feel a little bad I can enjoy their creations 20 years later and they're not getting anything for it.

However we know what's coming. Corporations aren't dumb, they see this, and in a couple years there will be a huge crackdown on retro gaming (they already shut down a huge archive). So enjoy while you can, they're coming for you.
