I don’t really see the point of adding it to Steam in the first place anyways

Free lifetime cloud storage for my savefiles and an easy way to update would have been pretty sweet…

Accessibility, ease of use, community for both discussion and content?

I completely agree. Emulators don’t belong on Steam.

Steam hosts software. Emulators are software. Google Play and Apple Store have emulators, why is Steam any different?

Because it’s actually a good storefront?

No reason it shouldn’t have emulators, of course, but there’s definitely differences.

And evidently I don’t think they belong there.
