When I really want to game, I play on one of my CRTs. When I'm doing analysis, ripping sprites, mucking about or emulating 30 shmups on an idle night at home, I'll use the LCD. The screenshots I abuse you with will include a random mix of all kinds of shitty methods, including the dropshadow everyone loves so much.
Somtimes I even do
things like this, screenshot manipulation designed to make THAT GUY apoplectic:
If you want to see a really awful use of authentic screenshots, check out the appallingly bad Atari Lynx screenshots in my book. The publisher couldn't manage to replace them with the good ones I sent before going to print, and they look like serious ass.
That Yoshi image is beautiful and heya NGM long fucking time no see dude! P.S. I actually play my older generation console games on a Commodore 1701 monitor. It just looks fucking better on it.
