A great article, I enjoyed reading every word :thumbup:

As a DS owner I would LOVE it if someone made an Amiga emulator for it, technically it must be possible as someone`s done an ST emulator...

My modded Xbox doesnt have a modchip to play homebrew/emulators, I can run everything from it just being soft modded. :thumbup:

There is a free and legal XBOX SDK http://www.openxdk.org but it hasn't been updated since 2005 and it doesn't support the network hardware. It's rarely used.

So let me get this straight, I can ALREADY play emus on my PS3 if I just install Linux? Could someone give a few examples of emulators available on Linux?

Except the softmod requires extra stuff, Dreamcast requires nothing extra. Also 99% of the homebrew for xbox is illegal.

Biggest homebrew scene for any console (not including handhelds because I don't feel like defending that point =P).

I've got a DS, and to be quite frank don't really like Sony or what they do at all. However I've got no problem agreeing with you, the PSP has almost certainly got the most entertaining homebrew library for a retail console.

and as for what I said previously
"maxconsoles will probably copy and paste this article and get 300+ diggs :/"

I'm glad I'm wrong and this site has got the recognition it deserves.
