Fortunately, CRT filters and (allegedly) beam simulation are getting much better than ever.

Might not be worth your time fiddling with though, still.

I remember reading a while back how 4K resolution is kind of a sweet spot for rendering all the phosphors for a really good CRT simulation.

I do like experimenting with those things sometimes. Just the other day I was showing my son something in Mario World and started playing with the filters. The worst looking ones (composite and god help me, RF) definitely were the most cozy!

If you have a high refresh screen (240Hz+) you should check out BlurBuster's and mausimus' ShaderBeam for motion clarity in retro games!
