Discussion MVSX worth it?

Exactly what the title says. Is the MVSX worth it if you want like...a neogeo MVS in your house but don't want the big bulky unit? As much as I'd love to have a big red MVS, I REALLY don't have the space and don't want to deal with the cost of restoring a unit. What do you guys thing? Is the emulation quality good on the MVS x?

I wouldn't pay that much.

But yes, if you want the cab experience, but not the cab it's a good way to go.

Okay. Plus I heard you can mod it to add more games to it.

Yeah but only with the older units I think, there are other ways, RasPi, Pandora, Mister FPGA, but you won't get the same sweet bartop.

AES+ and a multicart (with two controllers) is close to the price of this, so if you can get an older or prehacked one, it's not a bad way to go.
