This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I see. Does it not look like that when upscaled by an emulator?
These upscaling filters have been around for 20+ years. They're not AI.
Are you familiar with scaling shaders? There are several that are designed specifically to round out pixels, like superSAI, XBR4x, or HQ4x.
Personally I think they’re hideous, but some people do use them. It’s not AI.
