well, i am thinking maybe $100-120? i got it for $140. lumines is only required for newer ones or psp slim. i have no idea actually, i stopped keeping up with the whole emulation thing after i set mine up. i had to buy some gta game to get mine working correctly, i think it was originally 3.31 or something. i honestly don't remember. what matters is that it's currently on 3.40oe i think, which i had to set up myself. it runs all of the emulators and psx games and everything and if you really wanted, you would never have to do anything to it (meaning you wouldn't have to set anything up or download any installers or anything), but i think there's an upgrade that you could download, but i honestly have no idea what it does.
oh yeah i have a 4gb memory stick and that cost me $50, so i guess i would sell this to you for about $150.
but yeah, i don't think this was worthwhile at all. it is OK i guess to be able to PLAY OLD GAMES ON THE GO but really i am just not interested in games anymore. i think the longest i have ever spent using it was when bort and i were in the subway for like 15 minutes. that is not true, i put music on it and listened to it for like 2 hours, but i honestly just don't use it at all. i thought the novelty of being able to play snes games wherever i wanted would be really neat, but really it is not.
so i guess if you really, really want to play chrono trigger or super mario world on a road trip or in the middle of class, get it. otherwise it is just a waste of money. people talk about how homebrew or whatever is so great, but really it is just a novelty. you can now play games that have been out for 20 years on a 3 inch screen wherever you want for a maximum of 4 hours!
ps it comes with the psp megahits scooby doo, open season (#1 game on the psp), some metal gear solid game, and 2 gta games. also some power cord i bought and some earbuds (i am not sure if they work anymore so maybe not).
