| Megatron:
Quite a few of us. I have had one since June. I love it. Some people have some issues because it didn't live up to its high expectations, but I really enjoy it. I use it more than the actual systems. Plus it allows me to play super famicom games without modding my SNES. |

It's basically a clone system that you need to plug into an N64...if you have to have an N64 anyway to use it, you may as well just get a retron 5 for 1/3 the price. --- End quote --- Correction, it's a totally sweet and sought after piece if gaming history :) |

Maybe - still over priced. As a functional piece of gaming hardware, it is over priced for its limited functionality. |

They've always been pricey, as their availability was always limited, even when they released. I've always wanted one personally. --- Quote from: kingjohn3 on October 25, 2014, 11:43:48 AM --- --- Quote from: Megatron on October 24, 2014, 05:32:39 PM ---Quite a few of us.

At this point it's more of a collectible curiosity than anything. |
