What Would Make the Perfect Homebrew Console

[The 80s Man]

For me the most important thing that I have never seen on any handheld gaming device is the ability to plug in different analog controllers such as mini track balls and arcade spinners. Also I want to be able to rotate the system or the screen 90o and have decent controls to use for vertical games.

My idea of a perfect homebrew system would be a more powerful version of the GP2X with a touch screen and microphone. Of course, backwards compatibility with older homebrew portable systems and the ability to run homebrew from other popular portable and non-portable console systems would be an excellent feature, although I suppose getting that to work would take a lot of time and effort. Another essential feature would be an easily replaceable front plate, no matter how careful you are that clear screen viewing area will get scratches on it eventually or dust will end up under it and directly over the screen. I suppose the ability to control some games by tilting the handheld system. As somebody else mentioned, using other controllers with the system while it is hooked up to a TV would be cool as well, adaptors that allow using controllers for most console systems could be manufactured as well.
