    There are a lot of handheld emulators out there (you can check out SBC Gaming communities if you want examples) and they quickly become moderately outdated but because they are relatively inexpensive they are difficult to sell/buy used.

    You are typically only looking at a maybe $10 return with how things end up.


    This is just the first example that came to mind when I read your comment
