I enjoy retro games as well. My XBOX(original) is softmodded and has tons of NES, SNES, and arcade games including all the Metal Slug arcades.

I never had an XBox and have never really been too enthusiastic about the XBox line of system, but I'm seriously considering picking one up for this reason. They are dirt cheap and you can pretty much put every emulator ever made on the biggest HDD models. I have a lot of the consoles themselves but it would be nice to have them all in one compact package. I often play Genesis emulators on my dreamcast since that's the one system that is permanently hooked up, but it's disc based so it would be nice to just have them all on a hard-drive. Not sure what I would do about the controller though since I'm not the biggest fan of the X-Box controller.

There are so many NES games that I had never played (or even heard about) that I would have never played before. There are also so many old games that I could never beat (Maximum Carnage for SNES FTW) that I could finally play through using cheats.
