    Bah!......
    Problems that spring to mind

    -What happens when Naomi or even more complex system is emulated? Upgrade? Doh! Thats right buddy your stuck with a console!:D

    -Arcade ROMs are the property of companies that created them. If you sell a console commercially that will be playing they're games, licenses will be required.

    -But it plugs into my TV? So I could make my PC do that for a fraction of the price. :eek:

    -It could even be more powerful then XBox! wow but without the Xbox games whats the point? It runs MAME which is not a commercial program and is perpetually in Beta form. :rolleyes:

    -Hang on who cares if I have to "Hack" my Xbox its hardly rocket science! and lets me play a load of emulators already!

    -Could be used as part of a MAME cabinet! Oh but I'd still have to build the cabinet only I can't scrap the insides and use it for a gateway/spare parts/MP3 player when it bcomes out dated!

    More to follow as I think of them:)

    Oh I think he will get enough negitive responses:) Besides even if he did bring it out, it would be a little pricey to get it delivered to Ireland.
