- Bad is subjective. I have no issue playing any system from an atari 2600 to present on a modern TV. Only ROB and Lightgun games are acutally impossible to be used.

- You can get Composite to HDMI converts. But the smart thing is to buy a TV that has all ports. They are still made. Also, older consoles are slowly being moded to have HDMI added on. N64 and NES are currently being completed. SNES and GEN are starting up.

- Region logic on old consoles, no problem. All my systems are bypassed. And have no problem.

-thats because Pong doesnt look different on any TV. You have to understand that older consoles dont look much worse on more mordern TVs like the 2D console era 8 and 16 bit for example. But more mordern games like PS2 games look bad on mordern TVs. 480p or even 720p emulation would make a huge difference with these games.

-still not everyone has the money buying extra converters or moding its old consoles. 
- yes it is a problem with PS2 which is so hard to play from different regions that most people just buy a Japanese console for example. Other consoles have to be modded either way but again this is not feaseble to the average consumer.

- Personal opinion. I included ALL consoles.  The 3D ones too. I  have no problem for me playing them on modern TV's.

- But you have the money to rebuy said game ports/remakes, or buy the newer systems right. You spending money somewhere, regardless.

- All PS2's can be bypassed easily with slight lid mods. And Swap Magic. Or full chips. This isn't a big issue, as it use to be. When the PS2 was still important. No more hardware revisions. Gamecube region lockout is a total joke. It's just two wires and a switch. It's built into each system. NES, SNES, and 64 are physical tab cutouts. Wii, Priiloader.
