Remember when everything you liked was a cherished memory and not a half-baked reboot or unnecessary adaptation?

I remember how beautiful it was to get the link cable function to work on the old, DOS-based No$GB emulator. Finally securing those pesky trade-only Pokรฉmon? Actually fighting a friend? Legendary feelings.

DosBox was the most mind-blowing development I remember from the early aughts. Suddenly all of us Abandonware nerds could play our favorite games again after making the forced transition to XP and beyond.

I remember when I came back to my favorite forum after an extended break and found that it had been "updated" from PhPBB2 to vBulletin... I was SO lost looking into it, trying to navigate it. And the new reputation/karma system was already causing unheard-of amounts of drama.

I like how nearly-unlimited power has limited videogames like no other development in history. We could make huge and intricate games on a few MHZ of processing power and single-digit RAM values, but now everything is one impressive-looking BOX.

I like how new Abandonware sites play it bold and don't even pretend that what they are doing is 100% legal anymore... playing nice, removing games whenever some fucking lawyer requested it, where did all that submission got them? To extinction, that's where.

I used to write reviews for an Abandonware site that shall remain nameless, and at some point I realized that those weren't getting any traction... why? Because the latest wave of new users hadn't even heard of them, let alone played them. Absolute gut punch, man.
