does /vr/ stretch out their (retro) games to fullscreen?

Do you stretch out the Monalisa because it was painted in portrait mode?

>> No.6737491

i have a 21 inch tv which i sit 7 feet away from, and sitting further away is not an option, playing games in 4:3 makes the screen to small and my eyes get sore, so i stretch them to 16:9, which makes the games look like shit but makes them playable.
how do i make my eyes not hurt when playing my pc engine games at 4:3

Black bar allergy is the weirdest phenomenon, because it's not about the actual image itself.
I understand people who simply don't care or don't even notice if something's stretched by default.
I'd even comprehend someone who somehow likes the stretched look itself.
But these black-bar people...they aren't interested in the image, but instead the plastic around it.

Real hardware already stretches the games out to a slightly wider aspect ratio to fill a 4:3 CRT screen.

But no, even with my 16:9 BVM, I still play games in their original correct aspect ratio.

If widescreen is actually an option (like DK64 or Perfect Dark), then I'll go with that, or use a widescreen hack for PC games and emulators where it's available. If it's just not an option at all, then I'll stick with the original aspect, because stretched a shit.

you can love retro games without putting everything about them on a pedestal.

Whoa m8, you can play your games however you want, if you need to resort to x or y because you have some sort of impairment or personal situation that's okay, however, there's objectively good and bad setups for people with no restrictions that actually know what they're doing, don't be surprised if you go into a community full of them and get shit on because you try to pass your bad setup as acceptable.

You can extend the screen drawing in bsnes hd in Retroarch so it's true widescreen, although the sprites disappear outside of the 4:3 region. Works well on mode 7.
