I'm not sure why I'm interested in it, since I have a SuperNes and the original cartridge sitting right here.
I think most of it is because I enjoy seeing classic games I love get attention through rereleases.
There are also some practical advantages to it. I like the save state feature of Nintendo's emulator, I like the clarity that playing through component video brings to my favorite classic games on the Virtual Console, and I like the convenience factor of not having to switch to a different system if I decide while I'm playing on my Wii that I want to play a older favorite game. And my copy of Super Mario All-Stars has always been a little cranky since day 1 (Losing some saves while others are left intact).
And it's always interesting to see how these rereleases turned out (Seeing what was done right, what needed work, and checking out any bonus content that might be included).
