No,
Buy the newer
Retrogen or
Gencore, they have better screens, better battery life, and are easier to carry.

i think he meant that the nomad sells for $100?
i see them for $60 often. if you can get it for 40 or so then buy it, but 65 isnt that good of a price.

I have the Retrogen, it has suffers from a little bit of slow down in certain games, the D-Pad is weird, and doesn't come with 20 Sega games but has a larger screen.
The Genmobile has a smaller screen but comes with 20 Sega Genesis games already built in. I can't tell you if it has slow down issues or if the D-Pad is better because I've never played it but it looks almost identical to the Retrogen.
