>but dont get it for N64 imo
Why not? It works better than just about any N64 software emulator. The only stuff that gave me trouble were romhacks and homebrew that were intended for emulators and have issues on real hardware too.

>there's cheap options now with no compromise
For Taki's boards yeah, they more or less have no compromises outside of a 0.001% edge case where you have a weird custom board you want to use instead of the standard boards (even though 99% of standard boards will also work) that heavily relies on there being a barrel jack or mini-USB instead of the USB-C ports he used, if you really really need that second SD slot in the I/O board that nothing uses anymore (the spot for the slot is still there, the connector itself is just no longer soldered onto the board), or if you really really want a case designed for the original MiSter stack since the ports are in slightly different locations.

Beyond those edge cases that almost nobody would care about, pretty much no compromise, yeah.

QM's are a different story, they will still work out for most people, but they do have a few compromises and are not compatible with most other's accessories or addons.

There are a lot of arcade games that work on it now, as well as of course all of Neo-Geo, but it's not going to have the full list of MAME's supported games. There were some bugs in MAME emulation that due to the MiSTer cores were identified and fixed, so it's safe to say that the arcade cores it does get are pretty accurate.

No additional lag, more accurate in many cases, easy to hookup to a CRT, can use lightguns if you are using a CRT, can use original controllers, is a tiny box that has instant boot times that can sit by your TV.

>Because it lags trying to emulate 5th gen
Like >>11514032 said, it does not. It can handle PS1 and N64 pretty much perfectly now, does a better job on N64 than just about any software emulator.

is it worth it if you don't have a CRT?
