   Just played my old SFC, immediately realized how quicker it is to even boot them up compared to current year cruft.
   
   Back then:
   1. Mario flashes.
   2. Title screen.
   3. Game starts.
   
   Now:
   1. "Powered by Unity" appears.
   2. Developer's logo appears.
   3. Publisher's logo appears.
   4. Logo of the audio dependency appears.
   5. Logo of another dependency appears.
   6. Logo of yet another dependency appears.
   7. Copyright (which is a scam) warning appears.
   8. Anti-piracy warning appears.
   9. Skippable intro, but unskippable at first boot.
   10. Title screen.
   11. If new game, force the user to waste 30 minutes to 1 hour to watch to the intro movie.
   12. Tutorial level.
   13. FINALLY the game sta...no wait, yet another tutorial.
   14. Detailed instructions on how to jump using the A button.
   15. OK, now the game starts!

     Depends on the game.
     With a new game I can create shortcut to Counter-Strike with a parameter to connect to a server.
     
     So for me it can be:
     1. Server message of the day
     2. Start playing
     
     Just don't play bad games. Easy!
     If you play bad games, patch it. Easy!
