You can buy them loaded for around $100. You can build one yourself for around $50-60, but then you have to load all the ROMs on it too. You can buy SD cards with around 10K Roms on for around $20. I hope it's okay to link this, but this is the same seller on Ebay who I bought mine from. I sent the guy a message before I purchased it, and he was nice enough to use a different case color and added about 7500 ROMs on it for free. It came with two classic SNES controllers. He has various listings, but that should at least get you heading in the right direction with it. They're pretty nifty if you just want to play the older Atari/Nintendo/Sega games, but there are also some games from other systems like NeoGeo and Turbo-Grafx-16. Some I couldn't tell what they were from because they're listed as MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator). Everything is also alphabetized and mine came with Kodi installed.
I checked out the ebay link. Does it come with ROMs on it? Or do I need to acquire them myself?
