> PS1 games do not hold up so good
Eeh ... speak for yourself. PS1 did mark the dawn of the 3D era for home consoles. There are lots of people who are into the low poly 3D models with the characteristic PS1 "wobble".
Sure a lot of it may be nostalgia but it does have its charm and I can say it's grown a lot on me over time. Especially once I learned about the PS1's unique hardware limitations. If my social media feed is anything to go by "PS1 graphics" are having a bit of a revival with lots of people trying to recreate that look.
I had the N64. It did not wobble. Seeing a Playstation in action with its wobble was so weird.
N64 didn't have the wobble, but it definitely had the blur.
Reportedly, the only location to store textures for quick GPU read access was a whole 4 KB in size. What an, apparently, dumb mistake. The blur was bad.
