They're good, but they never had many games for them. The best are (according to all the reviews I've read): Highlander, VidGrid, Battlemorph and Iron Soldier 2. The worst is Blue Lightning (but you don't have to buy that, thank God).
Have you seen the "CD Unit Combination Valuepack"? It's £159.99 and includes Vid Grid, Myst Demo, Battlemorph, Baldies, Blue Lightning, Tempest Soundtrack and Hoverstrike. That's Baldies and Hoverstrike for £10, which can't be bad. Although the price is still a touch steep. If you've noticed how cheap things are in the states, why not buy them there have them shipped over? The shipping isn't that bad, and it saves a load of money if the price is right. I just bought 2 controllers from Go Atari (for my teamp tap games) and won their auction for $8.50, but then had to spand $10 on shipping ;) But this is still only about £10, and one controller costs twice that at Telegames UK. So a good deal.
Auctions are the other major place to get stuff - ebay.co.uk has fewer Jaggy auctions than the American site, but there are also fewer bidders, so you're more likely to get stuff. I bought my Jag from there, and had no problems. So feel free to roam around the web and see what is available (but unless you're a walking mint, you should only buy _very_ rare items from Telegames UK).
