The problem with official emulators like Retron 5 is that they have to wait until the patent for these consoles expire  before they can legally emulate them.  Once the patents for PS1, Saturn, and N64 run out, you are going to see the Retron and other Chinese ripoffs make console emulators for them.  Emulators can also have issues with bad video and audio.  But in the case of Retron 5, I heard they did a great job.  Took them long enough though.

Modern consoles like the PS4 and Xbox One have the ability for people to watch TV, surf the web, post on facebook, watch youtube, wash dishes, and paint the house.  Well, minus the last two points.  But anyways, I just ignore all those things and play games.  I find those additional things seem annoying and make those consoles cost more than they should be when I don't even use those features... 
Specially when the previous gen already offered those gimmicks.
Gaming since 1985
