Im almost not sure if I want that. Most of the games I would do that for are older games from like 25 years ago, and I honestly can't see playing them today and ever having those fond moments like I did then. In my case, the time of playing them also mattered a lot.

I'll take the opposite side of that

I bought an old Radio Shack Color Computer off EBay and had a total blast playing Dungeons of Daggorath with my kids. Plus, it's educational: it teaches you to type "A L " really really fast

Same, of course the memory of the time you played is also important. I was more asking hypothetically since this is not possible, as a game you'd love to experience again, maybe at that time also. Like go back and play it back then.
