    Anyway, what’s the point of a museum of a console maker without showing original hardware?

      That’s like saying what’s the point of the air and space museum if they’re not actually flying the planes.

      They’re not going to use the original hardware and put wear on them. That’s a standard part of archiving.

        No it is more like saying “What is the point of going to an museum of art when all the paintings and statues are only photocopies and 3D printed replicas”
