This is a really good deal. It comes with a wireless controller and 256MB internal memory although when I checked mine had almost 400MB. After a quick google I discovered they were being shipped with 'extra' memory to compensate for the NXE update. It's more than enough for your game saves. You would need to buy a seperate hard drive if you wanted to download stuff of course but for pure game playing you can't go wrong. Get yourself a cheap HDMI cable and you can play in Hi Def ( you dont need to pay a fortune for any branded or gold plated connectors ). Another very good aspect of this arcade edition is that you are virtually guaranteed to get the 'jasper' chipset which means you are unlikely to have the dreaded red-ring of death hit your machine. I havn't been online with mine yet as I am reluctant to pay for the wireless adaptor but apart from that I'm very happy with mine. Easy to set up and use.
