How do you guys play console games? Actual hardware or emulator?

How do you guys usually play games? PC, mobile, console?

I've been playing a lot more console games lately, mostly Switch games.

But when it comes to otome games, I still end up playing quite a few of them on PC. Sometimes it's because I need to use a translation patch, or I run them through an emulator so I can use OCR + machine translation. And for games from older systems, I usually just emulate them lol.

So I'm curious, how do you guys usually play console games? Do you prefer actual hardware, or are you more of an emulator person?

I also emulate older systems (if I don't own them), but I enjoy playing on official hardware! I own a Switch and a Vita, so just play the games on the consoles themselves (and PSP on the Vita as well). However, usually I prefer playing VNs on my laptop ;b I think it's more comfortable to read on the bigger screen

The consoles are pretty convenient for playing while laying down or on the go though! I prefer them when it's cold, as I can relax on my bed all cozy, haha ;)

Games are increasingly moving towards a model where they don't actually belong to you; if that platform ever shuts down or they decide to stop providing games, you'll have lost them. And there are fewer and fewer interesting titles on offer too.
