As title said...
So I'll boldly assume that all of you have wide screen panels (monitors or TV's)
You know how when you play those older 4:3 games they have these black bars on sides on a widescreen panels,
because wide screen was not a standard back than. So playing those games on a modern widescreen panels usually stretches the picture to fill the entire area.
However, that filling makes the picture to display incorrectly, stretched. Circle is not a circle but a ellipse.
I heard many people are not bothered by that, they even prefer it that way. I my self can never play a game that way unless its intended to be in 16:9 or at least close. It doesn't need to be prefect for me all the time, but i prefer CORRECT aspect ratio if i can. But 8:7 SNES games i prefer to play them in 4:3, they are stretched but by small amount and that's acceptable for me,
and also it gives this original vibe cause games where meant to be played in 4;3 anyway so its still a original experience sort of.
But the bottom line is this:
-Do you prefer correct aspect ratio or
-You aren't bothered AT ALL if the picture is stretched whatever amount of percent, as long as it fills entire 16"9 widescreen.
You don't want any pixel to be lazy!
Ill make a poll, please vote if you like, i'm really curious to see the results, its a fun experiment
By the way here are examples of what i mean:
