I'm sadly conflicted though because I don't really want to alter what it is. (Which is a licensed emulator machine....)
Who all has one and have you altered it?

Don't know if it helps make your mind up at all, but if I ever have the spare cash to get my hands on one of these beauties, I'm absolutely planning on modifying it to plan a whole bunch more games.  Of course, you sort of accomplish them same thing with a standard NES and flash cart (which I already have), so it's not a huge priority for me at this point.

I say set it up and start playing, the answer will more than likely just come to you while doing so.

Oh I've already played it. I think it's nice and plays really smooth. I like the interface a lot. I just don't think I've ever met someone that says they actually like Ice Climber lol. Most of the games are good but not great. I think I've decided I'm gonna do it but I'll wait for the warranted to expire.

That was my plan too.  Keep it as is while under warranty, then bulk it up once I'm S.O.L. if it breaks down.

BTW... I actually liked Ice Climber when I was a kid.  I suck very much badly at it now.  LOL.

I received mine in the mail yesterday. I plan on modifying it to add the ROMs of the games I own. I'll only add the games I own to keep it legal, but like one of you said, some of the 30 games are great, but others..eh.
wiggy:
That doesn't keep it legal.

That law exists/existed to allow owners of software which was distributed on a volatile storage format (I.e. Floppy disks) to create a single backup in order to protect themselves from accidental loss.

Besides, distribution of the ROMs is what's considerably more illegal, not that anyone seems to care anymore. ROM sites have been up and thriving for a long time now. It seems as though Nintendo and the like have just given up on trying to police ROM distribution.
