I am definitely serious. I don't hate youtube people or other people making and effort to contribute something meaningful to the snes or gaming. I love the snes. I am not expecting some godlike production from the smaller end, but it isn't like I'm dropping neo-geo prices. I have never backed any projects, but I see no reason to bad mouth other peoples efforts who share a passion. I could see being annoyed if we were dropping huge amounts of cash on these games, but it is a optional thing. The fact platformers can be made and released is cool in and of itself. It keeps the wheels turning on the snes and encourages other developers to give it a try. Eventually something great might come out down the road.
I can't imagine they make or even move tons of these things. Plenty of more lucrative and intelligent ways to pull profit then homebrew snes.
I am curious though of the totality of the profit margin, because when the gap is to big is when I lose interest. I don't specialize in coding though, so it may have more value to me in ignorance then those acquainted with it. My zone is electronics repair and tech stuff.
