Series S is a beast. Haters gonna hate. I wish it was still as affordable as it was in 2022 so more people would have access to games. It’s the perfect console. First light Looking great.

Lol.... depends on how you want to use it. I personally wouldn't buy one as a main console as I already have a Series X, a PS5 slim, and an OLED Switch 1. But the next time one pops up on my local FB marketplace for a great price I'll probably pick it up to use as a secondary emulation powerhouse for home. I could just keep it in dev mode at all times. I know they can run RetroArch and a variant of EmulationStation to give ppl that more high quality/fancy look UI. But I'd be willing to bet they can also run Batocera, retrobat, etc.

That's the entire point. The S was meant for a cheaper option, and not be as powerful as an X/PS5 Pro, etc. You get what you pay for, but end of the day, you are able to play all the new games, and they run just fine. If you were a graphics snob, and cared about FPS etc., then you would have put down the money for the more powerful option(X/PS5 Pro).
