If you're a collector, why not collect the systems to go with the games?
Plus you really need a CRT tv to enjoy PS1 and PS2 games. They weren't made for LCD panels.

I do have the systems, but it's a pain in the ass to move all that shit around all the time. I enjoy playing games of all generations, but the thought of having to rearrange every system and handle cable management for them, just give me a system that does all of it.

in a similar vein...I have PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, Super Nintendo, Wii, WiiU, Switch, Xbox, Xbox 360, and Xbox One available to me right now - as in they're all hooked up - but I'm not playing most of them. I play Ps4 games and Switch games, because any time I go back to anything earlier than that I'm just reminded how much better the PS4 and Switch are than the PS3 and WiiU. It's not that these games are bad, but they're just not as convenient. 

I'd rather play PS1-3 Remakes like Spyro and Crash than the originals any day. I'm more excited for Demon's Souls Remastered than any other PS5 launch title despite having a working PS3 and copy of the original game. I would rather play The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past on switch than my original SNES any day. I get the appeal of retro gaming, but I'm sorry, modern conveniences make it better. I'd rather play remakes than go back to the old games, which is why I don't utilize Backwards compatibility despite how it's a perfect match for my lifestyle.
