vinyl if done properly is definitely a better sound but is an acquired taste. I’m not sure if the warmth of a vinyl pressing is really going to shine through on 8/16 bit soundtracks though.
As far as fads go, vinyl is in a fad resurgence as a collectors item that a lot of younger people buy at places like hot topic and urban outfitters to frame and hang in their rooms. That’s the fad part of it. But vinyl collectors and enthusiasts have been around forever and I’m sure will continue to be. I don’t really think vgm vinyls fall into this category though.
