Speaking of PS2. I just got a Retro Fighters Defender controller. I hate the PS1/PS2/PS3 controller. This thing tho feels great and will be perfect when the 3 games I got off eBay come in. Psi Ops. Appleseed EX and Ghost in the Shell. I would like to get more like Shadow Hearts: Dawn of a New World. Chain Dive. Project Arms and a few more, hopefully this year. It's fun to revisit old-school action games esp hidden gems. That's what interests me most about PS2 are the hidden gems. This is why I love Saturn so much is the Japanese library is loaded with gems. That's how I rank a console. Less what it's front loaded with tho that is important, but what is on the backend. It's why I rank N64 below Saturn. N64 is well front-loaded, but after that, it's slim pickings. Saturn has some great first party but is loaded with 3rd party offerings in Japan.
PS2 is excellent for this, and so is the Nintendo Switch. I have 160 physical Switch games, and most are third-party. Not ports of big PS4 games or something but hidden gems.
