That seems more like a problem with the developer/publisher than it is a problem with Steam. Uplay and Origin are just as bad at "up"downgrades, but there not the big guy so nobody whinges.
No, the suspension tower and cables were not in place. I don't see how they expected a suspended span to survive without the suspension cables, but then again I wasn't paid to make the plans.
I of course base all my findings on Bridge Construction Set for DOS.
I believe the live video that was transmitted early, like from the Moon landing, was slow-scan TV. Which is very low bandwidth when compared to a standard television signal. The good video that most people think about was shot on a 16mm film camera then delivered back to earth.
Regulations, testing, etc, will all drive the price of the unit up.
But in the end it's because the manufacturers have figured out what the highest price an average insurance company will pay, and put it right at that point.
Why does it have to be emulation? You can pick up most of the systems you'd want to play for cheap, and most of them have Flash Carts or Mod Chips available.
