I've heard the emulation is shitty. Does modding it fix that at all? For this price I'm seriously thinking about picking one up!
At that price point it's worth $20 just to have a cool little toy that looks like a PS1. Who cares if it does anything at all?
The modding scene has come a long way. Mine is still stock for now, and yes the emulation is as poor as everyone says. Like you, I waited until I saw it get cheap enough. In my case, I saw it on sale at Target for $30. I feel like that's a good value for what you get. At the original $100 msrp it's a poor value, but for $20 or $30 just go for it. Honestly, I think the neat little USB controller is worth that much.
