I'm looking into getting a console that can play different console games.

I was looking into getting the one above. (Retron 3)
I also know that they are going to release the Retron 5 in July, which can play more games, and has HDMI with 720p production.

With the HDMI output, the RetroN 5 will be able to display games at up to 720p resolution. Hyperkin has also taken steps to eliminate the blurry effect you get when playing older, standard-definition content on high-definition screens.

“When [the games] were programmed originally, there was a space in between each pixel,” Lee explained. “But a modern television does not recognize that space and will attempt to fill it in with surrounding colors, which is why it’s actually blurry compared to playing it on an old-school CRT [Cathode ray tube]. What we’ve done is we’ve gone back and we’ve put that space back into it. You can actually identify each and every pixel—it comes out looking like high definition.”

Well you could say that but an old laptop will do just as much and you can carry it around :P Just use cables to plug in the big TV. I'm not dissing the system its nice just saying what i would do.
