I really hope this whole android gaming handheld movement picks up, not having to rely on these cheap asian hardware manufacturers, or the community to make good software geared toward emulation... it's been my #1 complaint about most of these gaming handhelds, dodgy or non-existent platform emulation. Some platforms see some love in time if you're patient, but with android the work mostly done for you.
The emulators for the most part are basically 100% (N64/PS1 probably at about 80-90%) and whenever someone releases a device with android built in, the emulators will "just work" if they can just nail down a good hardware setup with solid comfortable controls and battery... slap android on it and their work is done.
like this for example

if this wasn't some cheap peice of shit with software that *looked* like android and actually was a solid port of android.... this thing would be F*ing awesome!
-dual analog
-dpad that doesn't suck
-ergonomic abxy
-shoulder buttons
-non-proprietary charger
-hdmi & rca video out
-user replaceable standard battery (1500mah should last 4-5 hours)
-stereo audio ports
-external microSD port
-camera
-accelerometer
-haptic feedback
-touchscreen
AND THEN the WTFUUUUUUUUUU!!!!! this part is going to make it suck so hard ... the ripoff bullshit OS... I mean seriously... they're ripping off an OPEN SOURCE OS!!!! just compile and boot! I can understand if the hardware isn't up to snuff to run it.. but thats when you invest a *little* bit in the SoC and get something decent, bump the price up 20-30 bucks a pop and you'd sell thousands... if not hundreds of thousands more than what you would sell in it's current state.
one day it will happen though... they are getting so close it hurts to watch
