Playing GameCube classics, but in 4K on a Mac with PlayStation controllers, just as Nintendo intended.

My son still needs to figure out how to drive straight lol but he’s rocking it at Paper Mario TTYD.
As others have mentioned, there are two schools of thought.
Crisp 4K rendering, no jagged lines, higher details added in textures, etc
Or emulating the look of a CRT by using high density displays to create the same look.

I’m a bit in both worlds. I think that the split is at HD games. Up to SNES a CRT really makes things look as they were designed, but once you reach 3D games the low rez really feels like a limitation game designers had to deal with.
