did you try to talk them out of it?

I did, told them that GBA SP was a better choice, but they decided to get this cheap piece of crap

Its a ripoff indeed.

They wanted something "cheap", i can promise you, 59.99 of something of this caliber is not cheap(in terms of price) but cheap in terms of quality.

that sucks.

well. they obviously didnt know what they were talking about.

It's not really a rip-off, since you get the console games built-in and you can plug it into your tv screen, which you can't do with your PSP, lest you forget.

But if you're not into Sega, there are other themed old-school units available too. I picked the Ms Pacman one which is basically a controller with the game rom built in and you play it using the TV. - It was only like $20.
