This post was really inspiring. You are right, less is better and it gives you excitement. I have to tell you, I did not enjoy my PS1 time mostly because I mod chipped the console and I was buying copies of games. With the same price of one game, I usually got 10/20 games and who had time to play them all? I ended up playing few seconds each and not remembering any of them.

Thanks man, really appreciate that. I feel the same way about emulation as you said about PS1 modchips. Once I start playing a game, I play for a little then switch to another. I can't get through a game through emulation.

For me it depends on the game. If it's something like Milon's Secret Castle, I'm more likely to try and beat it on an emulator just because I can use save states and not have to go back to the beginning if I get a game over. In general, though, yeah, on emulators I'll play a game until I get a game over and then move onto the next one. Sometimes I come back to it to try again, sometimes I don't.
I'm not a glitch, I just have pixlexia.
