Sadly too few games and the resolution/ratio are not optimal on the Mini SNES and PS Classic. Check tutorials on youtube to expand the library.
This Atari 400 mini look nice.
They are fun, sold like crazy, reasonable at their actual asking price, and make nice "show off pieces" to put in your entertainment center.
And while this one lets you sideload, I'm not sure where you would source the media from.
