    I got mine around launch day and used it once.
    The joystick is awful (leaf switches and the stick shaft is prone to snapping), so you will need to invest in a new one.

    And it's listed on this mini, hence me mentioning it. I didn't just pull the name of a random game out of my arşe

    Amazon reviews say you can put any game on a USB stick and play it from there - anyone tried that?

    I'd like to buy it but only if I can play the greatest game ever made - Wizball :)

    in all honesty you can do this sort of thing on any laptop for free with an emulator - suspect that this will be relegated to attic junk in short order for many purchasers.
