Hmm, for only a week? My sister is paying 2300USD to tour Europe over the course of 21 days.

Anyways, start your own portable gaming industry.

She was gonna spend I think it was 3100 or 3300USD for 33 days, but not enough people went with it (its not a school thing, its some private touring company thing).

Tell people its cheaper to buy beforehand, but dont tell them where to buy them, so they are forced to pay more at the door.

Here's an idea. Buy some game systems(Maybe NESes) and some radio shack project boxes. Make portables out of them and sell them without batteries or screens(make them able to work with a normal RC-car battery and PSOne screen, and use a single set of batteries and screen to prove to the buyers that their unit works. That way, you can make maybe $50-$100 per unit or so, while paying a good bit less (depending on the system used, amount of modification neede, and where you buy said system.)
Warranty-Voiding fun!
