It may be a linux box with C64 emulation too. Like what the Wii is setup as: new + old. If it plays classic C64 titles and lets me hook up an old-school joystick, I'd be interested.

Big deal. You can do that now with any PC, which is all this hardware will be.

You can use atari/amiga joysticks on a pc, and it'll translate properly to a C64 emulator?

Yes. There are several options for interfaces which will allow Amiga/Atari joysticks to work on a PC.
