Yeah, that price tag is kind of bugging me, especially after the NES Classic, SNES Classic, and Playstation Classic were all $100 or less and had more built-in games. The ability to play 7800 and 2600 carts is cool, though.

I think the ability to play carts is part of why this is over $100, that takes a lot more hardware than just an emulation box does.
