Skylanders portal of power emulator7/29/2023 ![]() Personally, I don't think a lot of the underlying experience is lost by having a virtual interface representing Skylanders figures and the Portal of Power. I mean, I've emulated sewing machines, robotic toy dinosaurs, and slot cars, so it's pretty clear my mentality is to emulate as many things as possible. Then again, that's my bias as a video game preservationist and an emudev. ![]() ![]() We'll get to a point where either reproduction hardware or software emulation will be the only choices available. That's decades away from ever happening, but it's still unavoidable. Today it's easy enough to grab the Portal of Power and use USB passthrough, but one of these days years in the future that won't be possible due to original hardware ultimately breaking down and failing. For posterity and for preservation, it's something that should be emulated via software eventually.
