Looks pretty decent!

.... OR

User your pre-existing computer and install GameEx.    Or the cheaper option, RetroPie and a Raspberry Pi.  The only issue is, you have to do the work yourself.

I suppose I was looking at this from the aspect of someone who over the years had amassed a collection of games from these various platforms, but your console finally gave up the ghost.  Here you would have a way to not only retain use of all those titles but also in a manner with a controller and feel of the original that would be difficult to replicate otherwise.

Although this does look pretty cool, all in it's a bit expensive. However, that being said...

I dig it. I have a pretty good collection of PS1/Sega CD games, and have been thinking about getting some more Saturn discs (but I don't have a working Saturn sadly). If they can really pull off a playable Saturn experience, I'd probably buy in just for that... But only if I can buy the base unit and the CD attachment only.

I've already got a RetroN 5 for my Famicom/NES/SNES/Genesis cartridges, and that's been good to me so far (despite the reviews on the early models).

For my GC/GBA collection, nothing beats the Cube with the Gameboy Advance Player (although the RetroN plays GBA too, I've never used it).

I have an n64, but if you ask me it just doesn't hold up well and I have little to no interest to buy carts for it. The 15 or so I have are more than enough.

Don't need too much more than that.

Although I agree with @hansolo77, the Pi is a decent piece of kit... Sometimes you just wanna experience the console feeling.

It is pricey, but if it manages to deliver quality gameplay across so many platforms, it may do quite well.
