I could cop this. My only issue is the screen size but honestly, if it can emulate up to PSX games perfectly, I would happily drop the coin. It's a slick looking thing, I think a 100 would be an ideal price point though.

Word word. Definitely hold off if you're waiting on PSX emulation since they're apparently still working on that. I totally agree on that 100 price point.

Yeah, this was the best back in the day. There may be a better option now but I don't know. I hook up my laptop to the TV but that's a lot more expensive than it needs to be for just straight up emulation. Then again, my laptop also emulates Wii and PS2.

Still is aside from a laptop imo...I run all my emulators in 720p and the games play great...no complaints..I got a 500gb harddrive in my shyt...thousands of games...

Wow, youre just trolling now. I even said it sounds like it's not for you but somehow that makes me a part of their marketing department. You must be new here to basically be calling me a fanboy of anything not named Steam..

Umm wtf,this my first post in this thread. You just seem to be out here posting how this device is needed and the best for old ROMs. fukk outta here

Yeah, 175 should be a no brainer now at only 5k away. Hopefully it reaches 200k so I can get the carrying pouch too. You back it yet? There's a video of a really early prototype playing some PSX emulator. It still had slowdown but for an early prototype it looked like it was going to be in good shape. Can't wait.

its almost at 186K right now. I think it will crack 200K for sure now.

I think I am going to put my money down on Monday morning. I have a PSP that gets no use anymore and this thing would offer me more on the go. Then again would this thing be in the same boat? I play on the vita all the time...I love that thing

As far as power, this thing is well above and beyond a PSP. PSP CPU maxes at 333MHz, this one is 1GHz. Not sure how much you'd play this though. Probably depends totally on how much you might play SNES, Genesis, NES, GB/GBC/GBA games. They're really pushing for indie games and I may even try to develop one but I think they're gonna be light in that department. I guess another draw might be portable Doom and Quake. I know I can't wait for those. Doom, in particular, never ever gets old :yes:

BTW almost 190 now
