raises hand

As an owner of hundreds of Nintendo pieces from arcade to Switch… I’ve turned.

Original console or RPi3 with Lakka for classics on the Sony Trinitron, and GOG or Steam on Linux for anything new.

Look into a MiSTer FPGA. It’s way better than a pi (latency!) for everything up to ps1/n64/Saturn

Don’t remind me. I need a PVM to go with it. 😅 Although, I actually like the 240p composite video on the Trinitron TV, it looks exactly like it did back-in-the-day and indistiguishable from the real consoles’ composite output.

The Lakka image I’m using is well-tuned with noticably less lag than some Pi setups I’ve seen. Interested Pi owners can find it here.

I can’t find it, but someone has been collecting stats on input lag for many different USB gamepads/controllers as well.

I was shocked at how badly I was playing Symphony of the Night on a PS Vita TV with a DualShock 4… it turned out to be the input lag… of an real Sony controller on a real Sony console. Connect it by USB cable - noticable lag went away. 🤬

Honestly, with a 4k TV and a MiSTer, you can do some amazing things with shadowmasks and scanline filters, it looks good. And still, very very little latency (I can beat Tyson in Punch Out on an LCD display, no issues – try that on Lakka)
