Dunno, my gaming days ended with the DS. Thankfully those are all on lockdown as far as emulation goes.

I went with emulators. Much cheaper way to chase that particular dragon.

Oh, most definitely. That's all I use my Steam Deck for; got through Panzer Dragoon Saga, Burning Rangers, and Magic Knight Rayearth in the last year. There is not a chance in hell I'm spending the $1000+ for the "holy grail" Saturn games, but I had Shining Force 3 and Dragon Force when I was a teen and stupidly sold them on ebay for next to nothing and wanted them back.

Working Designs made some truly stellar games. Lunar and SSS are my favorite non-Squenix JRPGs of all time.

Yeah they did - Lunar was a blast and I have so much nostalgia for WD's quirky ass translations and voice acting.

Like Atlus today, back then, if was Working Designs, odds are I'd like it.

The newest HD remaster collection of Lunar 1 & 2 is very good - they cucked out on a /few/ of the translations, the river town is no longer inbred rednecks with teh jokes. There are a few other "off colour" things censored but largely it is the same. It runs well looks great and had the difficulty smoothed rather than SUPER HARD PS1 or SUPER EZ like the PSP version... songs and music redone.

But nothing compares to the old PSX collector boxes

Just bought my first real Hifi set up. Picked this largely because they were the only ones my wife actually liked the look of. Getting them in silver.

Onkyo Icon series P-80 and M-80.

Yeah but the rights to them was purchased by Harmon/Voxx what ever. They have put out some really popular AVRs in the last few years. This is their return to HiFi.

I think you should try to find an old Pioneer SX-780, SX-750, SX-950 or similar for those new speakers you bought. Pay no attention to the watt rating on those older models because they rated them differently back then.

I'll probably grab something vintage eventually. I'll be getting my father in laws Technics set up and vintage Pioneer speakers when he dies too.

Cheapest set of small/electronic type screwdrivers harbor freight had. I have a ton of stuff in my shop, but I'm not there right now. Big spender I think I spent <$5. I haven't been in one in maybe 10 years.

I like vintage audio stuff. I have a Sansui G5500 receiver driiving two cerwin vega speakers. They were bought new around 1976. I had the speakers refoamed, still going good. At one time in the set was a CD player from the early 80's. It's long gone. But I do run my Panasonic RT-909 reel to reel through it. I'm not a vinyl guy though I do have quite a lot of them.

60 watts per channel and it will put out a LOT more than you need/want in a house situation, by a lot.
