Here's one link: Tototek

He's out, but there's others...

By the way, there's playing them, and then there's playing them on original hardware...

EDIT Seems like most of them are out, and the ones that aren't ask way more. Dragonbox still sells them for €99 before shipping. Aliexpress sells them for 150 dollars shipping to Europe included. I'm sure there's others. But I just can't be bothered...

Way more expensive or not, it's still a good investment. Once you have it, you have every game at your fingertips...

Tip: Buy an NTSC machine so you can run all ROMs at 60Hz...

in a perfect world, if I had the money I would do that, but for the moment, any games I can't afford I will simply get for my PC Emulator, I know its not the same as playing on the real hardware but I can play with my 360 controller so at least I'm using a game pad, and it doesn't cost me anything

maybe one day....
