I am able to install lean, custom linux based OS onto the device which I much prefer to either android or iOS - it fully boots in 5 seconds, there is no bloat to speak of. I had a 256GB card which I have now put to use in this device - it holds PSX, N64, Dreamcast, SNES, GBA, GB and MAME games. More than enough to keep me entertained on any road trip. And it didn't cost me $100, I paid $50, an almost insignificant outlay.
Ok so you ignored half of what I said in my previous comment, just going to assume you are admitting you have no real argument when it comes to these points. But moving on..
So does an app.
Not PS2/Xbox/GameCube era consoles/games... Why not?
Not including the cost of the sd card right. Meanwhile a phone you already own has $0 outlay and does more.
You are not the judge as to what is or what is not a "real argument".
An appmay boot up in 5 seconds but android devices and iOS do not. I go from power off to gaming in 5 seconds.
But look who is talking about ignoring previously made points... I repeat, I like to keep my phone off when at my leisure and I prefer not the drain the battery for frivolous activities, especially when traveling.
It plays the systems that I want, hence why I purchased it. You are under no obligation to do so. I'm still not sure why this device and others like it have you so agitated.
