I have one already. It's called a hacked sony PSP + emulators & roms.
Shmil (Brawl Code 2621-2310-1994) @ Apr 15th 2008 12:18AM
but this is 1000x cooler than a dumb ol' hacked PSP
SoulBlade @ Apr 15th 2008 12:20AM
Hacked PSPs are a gift from above... or Dark Alex.
born2kill @ Apr 15th 2008 12:35AM
Dreamcast has all that and more
embassy @ Apr 15th 2008 12:43AM
i'd buy that...put it on a chain..and where it around my neck proclaiming my nerdom.
i'd then get surgery to repair my brutally mishapen spine.
embassy @ Apr 15th 2008 12:45AM
wear*
and...misshapen i think...if that's even a word.
if not...
:poof:

embassy has spoken.
colin @ Apr 15th 2008 1:18AM

Burn @ Apr 15th 2008 12:49AM

How does it play all those games without the CELL?!?!?!
Squirrel3D @ Apr 15th 2008 1:02AM

Man, I can't wait for a XDreamstationcube.
Kris @ Apr 15th 2008 2:57AM
SOLD!
Max Headroom @ Apr 15th 2008 3:00AM
I have something similar. Although it lacks the Atari capability, it kinda of makes up for that by being able to additionally play TurboGrafx-16/CD, Master System, Neo Geo, N64, and GameCube games.
I call it "Wii."
chispito @ Apr 15th 2008 3:28AM
He should have put 7800 guts in it instead of 2600, since the 7800 is backward compatible. But other than that it's pretty sweet.
Chase @ Apr 15th 2008 4:27AM
Needs more cowbell.
NES FANBOY (Yes my console is better than yours) @ Apr 15th 2008 4:27AM
ohhhhhhhh!! I just had an orgasm
where can buy this?
colin @ Apr 15th 2008 4:46AM
this is way off topic, but i just finished portal. it is goty in my book.
Chase @ Apr 15th 2008 5:22AM
The cake is a lie!
colin @ Apr 15th 2008 5:31PM
or is it ...?
War Flame @ Apr 15th 2008 5:16AM
This is kinda cool but really your cooler if you own all those systems separate. And even better if you own as many as the Angry Video Game Nerd. But your just a quack and you lose 110% of that coolness, if you don't have at least one next gen console like the Xbox 360 also.
whosmav @ Apr 15th 2008 5:43AM
Towel please
Chase @ Apr 15th 2008 5:44AM
I have a used WetNap. Will that suffice?
V1L3 @ Apr 15th 2008 5:51AM
"Hay guys, I can play all this games on a emulator!"
Sigh.
manaman @ Apr 15th 2008 2:29PM
What all the newbies pointing towards emulation are missing is that some of us actually own these systems and loads of games on cartridges. Wow! What a shocker! Whatever any of you say, the experience is not the same unless you're playing the actual games with actual controllers on a TV like they are actually meant to be played. The difficulty nowadays is that many of the old systems aren't working as well as they used to. For that reason, this is the most amazing thing ever and one billion times better than a hacked PSP or even, I have to say it, a hundred thousand times better than the Wii Virtual Console.
Those of you comparing this to your ROM collection should be ashamed.
manaman @ Apr 15th 2008 2:30PM
I'm going to add a little ;) here so that no one starts crying because of how harsh I sounded.
Fernando Rocker @ Apr 15th 2008 5:31PM
Wiiiiiii!!!!!
hvnlysoldr @ Apr 22nd 2008 1:38AM
