You could write a glide driver for an nvidia card if you wanted. E.g. dgvoodoo. I think a distinction should be made between a driver, a wrapper and emulation. They all do things differently, with emulation utilizing the CPU to make up for any features that the GPU lacks. Actually it's not unusual …

Cards don't do D3D/OGL/glide/etc. They do much lower level 3d operations. The question is has a driver been written that implements a particular API for a given card. You could write a glide driver for an nvidia card if you wanted. E.g. dgvoodoo.

When sound-cards were no longer a thing. When running your own servers for multi-player games were no longer a thing. When in-game transactions became a thing.

Retro gaming is like appreciating art and music, so no not a waste. Modern gaming is like watching trash TV, so yes it is.

Game developers in the 90s had less to work with, so invested more in gameplay, humor and story. But they had enough to make stunning handdrawn graphics and amazing midi soundtracks.
