Alternatively, on pc you can avoid playable monetization strategies and exclusively buy drm free and/or take into account those dangers of getting burnt by adjusting the price, at which you purchase the games, accordingly.

Erm, so am I. Quite a few of aforementioned releases come packaged with emulators. The evercade is an emulator box.
People who pirate for free games will pirate regardless of whether emulation is used or not.

Quoting: Mountain ManQuoting: emphyExcept we're talking about emulators, which is something else entirely. More often than not, using emulators to "preserve" games is just a thinly veiled excuse to pirate software.Quoting: Mountain ManWhenever I hear people talk about "game preservation", it always sounds suspiciously like, "I want free games."Because, of course, no one ever spent anything on the re-releases on steam/gog or the evercade cartridges.

The age of cultural piracy, where big companies try to lock down human culture behind so-called "intellectual property" laws, is in full swing.
If you don't want future nostalgia be held hostage by such, do not play their games. They are much overhyped and overrated any ways.

Even if I were ever in the market for an ultrabookalike, that white blob would be bothering me to no end. Whoever thought that was a good idea, and how did it live on past the concept stage?

Nowadays one should even be wary of github pages; there's been a recent spate of malicious forks of open source projects on github pretending to be the original. I.e.: verify whether one is visiting the genuine github page.

Hmm, I'm thinking the ui could do with some cleanup. Is there a way to:
Hide (visible on hover) that mass of play, settings, download and store icons at each game cover?
Hide the sidebar?
