I looked up a fan site. Not many games for it, but they lok somewhat decent. Have this system and its games been emulated?

for MESS it was back in 2010, the roms are floating around the web . . . although I don't think the games are anything special.  The games i believe were a lot of Hudson clones.

I played one at MGC and it was pretty rad! Too bad there weren't many games. Think there were 8 or so.

Very cool. Thanks for the posting the link.

As luck would have it, my company's Secret Santa has a $3500 cap. Now I have the perfect item to put on my wishlist.

Neither have I. Or, if I have, I subsequently forgot about it. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)

There's a boxed one on eBay right now for only $400. I don't need it but you guys can enjoy. :)

Is it just me, or does that box art seem very Neo Geo?

It looks like there's a 32X type add-on pictured on the back of the box? Maybe it's a CD-Rom.
