    I remember the empire ep2 stars wars game ( I had only seen return of jedi at that point n didn't even kno luke had a blue saber, I found that out in this game lol). I just recently watched a playthrough and realized that at 6 or 7 years old I'd never seen anything past the 1st 2 levels LOL. which was the story of my life with 80% of snes games.. back then they needed to justify the 40-50 dollar game that was probably barely a hour long realistically thru n thru, n justify they did with MASSIVE difficulty!!no saves, if the game wanted to be "nice" it would give passwords for levels but the the really difficult games didn't offer that luxury.. sometimes when they did offer a password it would be timed at like 5 or 10 seconds, giving u barely enough time to write them down!..it was alot harder than kids today may realize because the password would be lil sprites or pictures of animations, and most of us cannot draw the animation, and spelling out the description of the animation took too much time!! Especially when there were 4-8 characters at times.. just imagine a four character password n it's a sprite of a ghost, raven, monkey, sword.. we wouldn't have the time to spell out the characters n would have to get creative, we would be lucky if there were repeated characters as most if us had a symbol or word to shortcut "repeats:. I kno what im talking about makes zero sense to a kid nowadays but Tyler im sure knows the pain. There is one game in particular I LOVED as a kid that I dnt think iv ever seen u mention. That game being "X-men: mutant apacaplypse".. i have this specific memory of being really upset it was a single player game up to the point where I made my mother drive me back to KB toys so I can ask the store clerk to MAKE IT INTO A 2 PLAYER GAME! LOL..little kid logic at its finest right there..my mother being Korean and not at all knowledgeable about tech or games had my back and asked the store clerk "why?" Store clerk-"it's just not possible maam" mom to me-"they can't change the game into 2 player" me-"wahhhhj".. but then when the dust settled and I came back to my senses, I played the game and it was "MIMD BLOWN". It's the closest u could ever be at the time to being wolverine,gambit,cyclops ect.. the way when u play as wolverine u could climb up walls with his claws, fight sentinals!! It was jus epic!! so much so that I completely forgot that I wanted, no.. DEMANDED it be converted into a multi-player title!! that game and batman return (based on the Burton film) made me feel like I was a superhero.. there are just those certain games that transport u back into a 90s living room, sitting way too close to the box tv and those 2 games along with some honorable mentions (super Mario world, mortal kombat, double dragon and battle toads, toy story,alladin,lion king) its wither the games that made u feel like u were the character, and the other big thing waa MUSIC!! The music in those older games literally hypnotize and brings u back into a nostalgia mind trip that quite frankly makes u long for the simpler, "better" times..

      Very few people collect retro physical anymore (the market is just outrageous) so that's not a valid reason. And 90% of gamers use emulators guilt free for that reason.
      Why would I pay for Antstream (or use it free with ads) when community made emulators and roms are easy to use/find for everyone? AND they have much less input lag and represent the game more faithfully.
      Also, if Anstream doesn't have the games you want, you're going to emulate them anyways.
