I love the idea of having a classic-game-center, all-in-one console, and I'd pay $200 just for that (sans any revolution). One console that's legit, sitting at the couch playing all the old games with a simple click of the remote/controller, all in one place.
Sure you can get ROMs and emulators. But it's like going to Best Buy and picking up the music CD instead of trying to find them online and downloading them -- it's just easier to go legit. Plus you get the jewel case and nice liner notes, just like we would get better and bigger-screen graphics (I mean, my TV is bigger than my monitor) and (perhaps) updated graphics and online play! I'm paying for the time I would save not having to find the games and make them work, and for that extra bit of quality.
I think..... SNES was my favorite console from NES to N64, so I would download most from that. Though if the Revolution runs N64 games with more power and thus better FPS it would be very close.
I think the desire to splurge and get all the old classics would be big. I'd have to hold back, because then I'd never end up finishing any of them. Like getting too many books at one time. I'd start with the ones I never played, like the SNES Legend of Zelda and Earthbound. Then after finishing the classics I've never played I'd splurge and get the ones I have finished to play at my leisure.

Exactly what I meant.
