Thats pretty sweet. It would be cool if they put some computer hardware in there and maybe android OS or something. So then you could hook it up directly to your TV to play the games you backed up.

This is a cool gadget. I liked the part when the guy talked about hi-res texture packs for n64 games. I want to get my hands on that.

I've been looking forward to the RetroN 5. Hoping somebody will make use of that USB port and manage to get it to run roms as well. If not, you can still use something like an EverDrive. Great price too!

$99.99 or €89.99

Im excited for this one just because it has HDMI and recording will be MUCH simpler.
