No, emulator primary motive is enabling longevity for the target system, since hardware get damaged over the years, CD/DVD/Cart get corrupt over the years, without it, there will be literally no way to preserve a console games and ecosystem, for example I own 805 switch physical games, but because I know Yuzu exist I don’t have to worry about if one day the cart get damaged or something

Out of curiosity how many of those have you played all the way through, or beat? Or are you more into collecting them as a hobby

played maybe around 5% of it, I am mostly collecting them as modern gaming is rapidly becoming too unbearable for me(MTX, Lootboxes, the recent NFTs, etc), and I am most likely plan to just play the collection(which I collect with criteria of at least 1% of interest of playing ,so no baby games like Racing with Ryan etc) when I stop buying modern games
