/vr/ - Retro Games

The main problem I'm running into with retro gaming is the price of the games. I'd much prefer to use actual hardware, and I already have most of the consoles I could ever want to play, but I simply don't have the funds to also support a library of games for them, especially some of the better ones. I can burn Playstation and Dreamcast games, so that's not a huge issue, but cartridge based systems are obviously a little more complicated. So:

What flashcarts does /vr/ recommend? Explain it to me like I'm retarded.

It's cool but it's really expensive. At that price, would it have killed them to include an SD or Compact Flash slot on the thing? I don't really see the point of buying a clone console if you're going to be buying all the original cartridges anyway.
