The average gamer plays games on a manufactured console. The truly hard-core gamer makes his own using kits like the Meggy Jr RGB.
The idea here is that you put the Meggy together yourself, and then program games that will run on the 8x8 RGB LED matrix display -- plus eight extra LEDs that you can use for scoring and the like.
According to developer Evil Mad Science, Meggy is "fast, programmable, open source and hackable," although putting it together does involve a bit of soldering.
Meggy Jr RGB kits run from $65 to $95 -- some sets include handles and extra cables -- and are available now from the Evil web site.
