In another thread, the console Hyper Scan was brought up. heres the wiki page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperScan
anyone got one? is it worth it? I can get my hands on one pretty cheap (assuming there is still a whole stockpile at the store around here that had TONS of them) and i notice theres a little bit of a homebrew scene according to the wiki, so i am kind of curious if this would be a worthy investment. great addition to the a collection, but I want to know if its even worth having.

Re: Hyper Scan
I never had it, but I wanted it as a kid. Then I saw this review of it.
If it was more like a console e-Reader I would go for it. But seeing as this thing was competing with the 360 at the time, of COURSE it failed.
It's all just personal preference. I think this is the closest thing to a digital download I could come up with. If it only caught on.

Back on topic, I remember seeing this console at Wal-Mart. Damn it looked stupid.

Limited games on that low production Mattel, hardly worth getting. More of a collector wall trophy.

Re: Hyper Scan
I have never heard of it, looks like a piece of shit, love those loading screens.
Its hardly a console, more like a plug and play system.

I don't consider anything with an attached AV cable a console.
