EMs rule. I love getting one dirt cheap and spending an hour and zero dollars on it and getting it working.
Of course like once a year I get one that absolutely drives me insane. I guess the same can happen on a digital game.
EMs will always be cheap and plentiful and that's a wonderful thing for a hobby that too many people barge into thinking the only game they want is TZ causing them to declare it a "rich man's hobby." If you don't enjoy EMs you have terrible taste.
