$9 seems to be absolutely amazing! But it only mentions the battery. So any other power source is not usable? And how long does it operate on battery power only?
I have a Pi2 and it's still in the original packaging. Tell me what to do guys, I love this shit but somehow I lack creativity in this department. My mother in law wants to buy a new tv (old one just died on here some weeks ago) and I strongly advised against a "smart tv" because 1.) All the "smart" stuff are just slapped on and very limiting services 2.) They are ~20% more expensive. I'd rather set her up the pi2 and send it to her, so that she can use the tv as pc and browser the pad properly with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard.

You can easily use a small adaptor/transformator that delivers the same thing as the battery so that's not really a problem.

Yeah, that posting is insane 
@Ankh
I'm not sure about MAME, maybe one of the older MAME Reloaded 0.39 builds? As for Amiga should be okay, it runs fairly well (going by most reports) on the old Xperia Play which is roughly the same class of hardware performance. |
Amiga 500 definitely. But not AGA. |

Definitely! £28/$35 for the Pi2 and you'd need a few extras, such as SD card and wifi/BT dongles if you need connectivity, but either way.. it's far more powerful than this CHIP.

That's pretty much what I did with our TV, which is a "Smart TV" but is a bit naff really, so I got an Android stick (an MK908ii) and it's really good, far better than the TV and better than a Pi2 as well. 2GB RAM, quad-core 1.7Ghz and a built in Mali400. It's great

Aye, no doubt! The old UAE4all was only A500-based anyhow, it was only recently updated to support AGA/1200 and I have no doubt that would be far beyond the capabilities of an Xperia Play, or this C.H.I.P.

Yup, the Pi2 is getting a lot of good feedback right now and the perf jump from Pi1 to this is supposedly fantastic - especially for emulation, going from a weak single core to a stronger quad is proving very effective.

So what else would I need to get this running?

A power plug, a HDMI cable, keyboard/mouse and an SD card. If you just want it for emulation, then RetroPie is everything you need - it's a fully built distro you flash to the SD card (yes, flash, not copy/paste.. the bootloader and all that) and has emulators built in and preconfigured to run. You'd also need a controller (can use the GPIO pins to wire up your own, or use USB controllers) and maybe a USB HDD for larger storage.
