Haha honestly just go find a game that’s been on your backlog for a few years, look on Wikipedia, then see if it has a console equivalent. Then go download a console emulator from the emulation wiki recommended in another comment.
For example, if I wanted to play the original Disgaea, I know it plays on the DS in addition to the PC. So why not play it on a DS emulator like Drastic?
I don’t know. Things are going “better”, but I’m kinda irritable for some reason. Like the “better” isn’t coming fast enough.
