A retro gamer shared a video in which he managed to run Windows 98 on an Xbox Series S console. This operating system has already appeared on the most recent Microsoft consoles, following one gamer who previously ported Windows 98 to the Xbox Series X.
Since its release in 2020, Microsoft has praised the Xbox Series S as a low-cost alternative to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Many gamers have turned to the Xbox Series S as a low-cost alternative to the next-gen titles.
Modern Vintage Gamer's Xbox Series S is transformed into a retro Windows 98 gaming PC with community-developed apps. He briefly shows footage of classic PC games like Half-Life and Unreal launching on the Xbox Series S, and several performance metrics demonstrate incredible results.
As time goes by, gamers' fondness for retro games intensifies. It's good that games like this exist to allow them to replay times on modern hardware, as it's a great way to preserve old games that might be lost over time. Atari just released a box set of ten very rare games for the Atari 2600.
No matter how much effort it takes, it's always fun to see gamers returning to original retro games. Sometimes it's better to play the original. It makes it easier to forgive outdated mechanics, which many remasters do not do.
