This guy looks like a local swindler we have in our town, panhandler sorta dude who would steal the groceries out of the back of people's trucks and then try to sell them to other people in order to get money to afford booze.
Not a slight at this guy or anything, just thought it was a topical anecdote.
Dude, put away the toy shovel, you're trying to dig way to deep with it.
Everything you said could also be said about people who get super excited just because somethings new. Look how many people throw money at the new Iphone.
If something was good in the past, its usually good today. You're missing the point of the idea behind these consoles. Sega Saturn has a lot of great games-- almost none of which have ever got a remake or a sequel or a port. The only way to play some of those games and trust me, some are incredibly worth playing, is to own the hardware, which is unreliable. These kinds of things are not meant to appeal just to nostalgiatards, but gaming historians who actually want to experience a part of gaming history.
You're lumping everyone who just doesn't bend over and buy into new concepts into a mold of religious nostalgiac zealots-- while being a "NEW STUFF IS BETTER" dogma preacher.
I think to truly appreciate how amazing modern technology is, its imperative to see how far its come by enjoying the old technology.

Re: Intellivision Releases An Amico Unboxing, Showcases A Functioning System
Also I feel like it should be noted that no hardware company would pack an electronic like that.
