Yeah I love the fact that in this game, the message was just for the sake of it, while nowadays it would be in order to keep the person playing it addicted to whatever skinner box is integrated into the gameplay loop.
If I may add a different suggestion: have you considered hacking one of the old consoles that you have/can buy used to enable retro gaming? A used Wii or Wii U for instance have great wireless controllers available, especially used Wiis without the games and accessories are dirt cheap. The process is very simple, just do a quick google. Basically, hack an old console, load the ROMs you have, get an appropriate wireless controller (8bitdo makes A LOT of compatible wireless gamepads), and you’re good to go.
Here is an example, for the Wii U, though the Wii is probably even easier (but SD)

You could also get the games using the virtual console offerings for the Switch if you don’t want to mess with ROMs. I know the switch has that adapter thing that holds the nunchucks in a ‘classic controller’ gamepad form. Even very old consoles sometimes have great retro gaming or homebrew options, the classic Xbox to name one example.
All in all I think this would be the fastest and maybe even cheapest option.
Also, kudos for nurturing the love of video games in your son.
This channel is pure solid gold. Love every video he releases.
Straight out of a 90s cyberpunk film!
It looks delicious
Many thanks
Whaaat I can play PS1 on the go?! That’s great
MVG is a legend
I really need to finally play this game
The 2DS really gave me hand cramps. I suggest you invest into a clamschell 2DS/3DS, definitely.
What a great company, I love their products
If I may add a counter-argument. I avoided RetroArch for years due to this, but it is only partially true. If you are even a little bit proficient in using a computer, it will feel slightly finicky, but once you have it setup, it is pretty easy. Many things in emulation or hacking are much more complicated. I now use Retroarch daily and feel kind of stupid for avoiding it.
That is a very interesting take. 4:3 games do have a certain retro feeling to them!
Slightly more focused on emulation but Modern Vintage Gamer is a very high quality channel
I have to admit every time I see one I really get the urge to buy one. But personally I prefer buying older systems and putting emulators on them. The PSP is a classic for instance.
This is why I love the fediverse. I would never find this article by myself.
