There are a ton of people who just want to play games... some people just want to relive the 90's without wanting to tinker with mods / emulators / Rasberry Pi's etc.

Plus, not everyone knows about emulators. Just like the NES Classic, this is a great deal at under $4 per game and they're some of the very best games that ever came out for the SNES. The best part of this is that it gives the younger generation a chance to play these classic games.
When you say emulators, are you talking about how you can play these games on a PC online, or something different? I'm a little disappointed they raised the price from the NES classic, but it's still more than worth it for the controllers and SF2. There's nostalgia in the form factor as well. I wouldn't mind owning one myself. I'll add it to my Christmas list. hehe
