I wonder if there's a way to emulate the old CRT displays. My brother built an arcade cabinet, but it's got a modern monitor in it so the graphics don't quite look right.

There are some very convincing shaders that work really well to emulate the look. I sold my consoles long ago and may have a faulty memory but the right shader looks just like I remember.

OLED is as close as you can get for response times and color depth. It lacks some subtle glow and blending that you get with CRTS

There are some hardware scalers that work really well. But most that offer good compatibility with a wide range of older consoles cost about as much as a complete high end pc to run an emulator on.
