Of course, if the goal is emulation then a PC is a better choice. My goal with this though is to use original hardware, with original discs. Sometimes pushing it to the highest quality it can offer, even with modifications. Playing the games in this case is the second half of the experience.
Haven't installed it yet, waiting my new non yellowed shell to be delivered. I have an ad card ready to go though. Now I am really considering this addition. Might be a little wait.
I just got my FlippyDrive, once my new shell comes in I'll consider grabbing this before the install.
