Hall effect joysticks and a 7350mAh battery is very impressive for this price range. I'm not that interested in android devices but this looks great for emulation.

Seeing as there are now fully grown adults who have grown up with those consoles, I'd say yes. Was the PS1 retro 10 years ago? Was the SNES retro 14 years ago?

Good point. I hadn't thought of it that way. When my parents talked about the things they did when they were kids, I thought "gee, this is ancient history!"

To put it into perspective I am 32 and have been emulating systems since I was at least 14 if not earlier. At this point the emulators themselves have become a form of classic gaming.
