Quote: Alined scanlines aren't simulated DEGRADATION. It doesn't hurt the eyes and the image output on a Pc monitor looks terrible without it. A real arcade monitor is the way to go if you have it. I bought one and it's incredible, but now the image output from mame is almost as cool on my 21' crt pc monitor. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think you're just trolling.
Also, you can have rgb out on the Nes with a little mod.
I didn't mean to imply scanlines themselves were "degradation", but scanline jitter and color bleeding are. Your preference to Arcade monitors is noted, and is entirely subjective. What looks good to you may not look good to me. Not really sure how you came to the conclusion that I was trolling....
I thought I read at one time that RGB could be done by modding the console. Good to know my memory isn't entirely crap
