Beck, thanks, but that’s a little bit too “unique” for what I am interested in. My main goal is to get an NES, SNES, Sega, Sega CD/32X, Dreamcast, and N64.

In the end, it’s a personal preference.

It is legal they offer roms for free download and you can use a controller it’s what I do I have a old pc for just this reason, just food for thought. I use to have every system like you wanted to do and it was fun and nice to have all of them but a hassle, I unforantly traded them in for cash.

Roms are NOT legal. The only case where they are is if you made it yourself, for backup purposes, or if the game is open source/super old. Any rom you download online, whether you own the physical media or. It, is not legal under current law.

I know this is a little _newer_, but it is in great condition and it’s a special edition! I just plugged it in and it turned on no problem. All cords, 1 or 2 controllers, i’d have to dig deeper in my closet. Interested?
