The State of Emulation

While it started exclusively as an activity enjoyed by a small demographic of ultra-nerdy young people with knowledge of obscure websites, emulation has gradually blossomed over the past thirty years into something we all do regularly—often while obeying copyright laws. Without emulation, most retro games would be entirely inaccessible to all but the select few with the cash available to purchase pieces of decades-old plastic that are only increasing in price and decay. And would our little podcast even exist without emulation? It's a thought too terrifying to dwell on.
This week on Retronauts, join Bob Mackey, Read Only Memo's Wes Fenlon, and Zophar's Domain founder Zophar (check out his YouTube and Twitch channels) as the crew discusses the many big moments from emulation's history—and how the subject has recently become more relevant than ever.

Timeless
Been following Retronauts since 1UP and just like the games they never go out of style. It's well worth getting on their Patreon feed if you like what you hear.
Great show
A fun and informative video game podcast.. 5 star show
Disappointing and arrogant
The hosts are very knowledgeable about video games, the lore, the mechanics and everything concerning their production, that’s clear. And some episodes are just fine and dandy.
Unfortunately they veer into political areas far, far too often and that’s where their incompetence, intolerance and overall vulgar smugness shines through to ruin the central theme. Here’s a tip for you, fellas, if you insist on criticism on themes outside your very limited fields of expertise, at the very least do some objective research. Otherwise your knee jerk uniformed opinions will simply spoil and side track what you say your show is about - games.
