Theres still a way for a handful of enthusiasts to play games using retro hardware, usually at a huge personal expense. Not everyone could, as there are extremely limited numbers of these consoles and games available now. Not to mention the collectors who argue that any of these consoles that still run should be preserved for as long as possible rather than be used to play games.

Yup. All I was getting at was that it's not impossible. And I know that "impossible" isn't what the other commenter said!
