  But that "magic price" is what companies tend to shoot for NOW.  That's 
Sega's goal, and I'm sure that Nintendo and Sony will try to keep it at $200 
whenever they release their new systems (not anytime soon, I imagine).

  But I wasn't talking about the Nomad, I was talking about the Game.com.

  No, you don't.  That's like saying you NEED a V-10 engine to power a car!

  For goodness' sake, it's a portable game machine, not a small Pentium!  
Quake consumes considerably more space and CPU effort than something like 
Duke 3D, even on a small black-and-white screen.
  As for the originality, I suspect it's because they want to show off its 
relatively powerful (compared to other portables) hardware, and what better 
way to do so than by using existing games which one would think off-limits 
for such a machine?

  Maybe, but at least it has some merits of its own.
