Or you could use that 100$ and buy a wii that also lets you play old games. Even better if you get yourself emulator for pc, its free.

 

[officeguy]

Yeah, but you can't carry around your PC and wii everywhere you go.

@officeguy: Can you carry dock, phone, controllers, cables and the monitor with you?

 

[tanjo]

Or add $200 and buy a fkin real console?

Or for free you can root your android device, link a PS3 controller, and play all the emulators your want via micro-HDMI to your TV. Yes it's free and it works perfectly. You can also pay a few bucks for more flashy emulators if you want. I applaud them for trying to do something like this, but it's not like you are playing NES games, you are playing "iCade" games.

I also have my new Nexus 7 linked up like this (minues the HDMI, but the screen is big enough), it even plays PS1 games perfectly.

If it was Android everyone would be pre ordering it!

Last I heard laptops are designed to be portable...

"...one with two controllers and an HDMI cable for $125"
PASS!!

Why would I want an old console when I don't even have enough time to play all of today's greatest games...
I need to finish God of War 3, the newest Zelda, the newest Metroid, and serveral other really good games I don't have time for.

 

[spookyman]

And why do I want to pay for the game?

With an emulater I can get a rom of the game and play it on the PC.

M.A.M.E. a ps3 controller and Asus tf101. Works quite well and still pretty portable. Like the nintendo theme of this. seems like a good solution for phones
