Bought mine for $240 after Christmas, and did not regret the decision. There aren't many next generation exclusives at the moment, but the way I see it, it's a better Xbox One than the Xbox One. Games load faster, a big deal for Soul Calibur 6 in particular. They'd probably also look better on close inspection, but Xbox One games already look pretty spiffy and my TV only goes up to 1080p, so visual enhancements are not hugely important to me.

Also! In developer mode (and retail mode if you know the trick!), the Series can run GameCube games, AND Dreamcast, AND PS2, which is invaluable to someone like myself who can't let go of the past. And they all look terrific upscaled to 1080p! I've got Bombastic, Capcom vs. SNK 2, and Bloody Roar all at my fingertips, without having to dig out the old dust-covered hardware. Awesome. I'd buy that for 240 dollars!

Fabric softener sheets are the go-to for removing odors from game systems. I know people use them to take the stench of cigarettes out of used items. You put the system in a plastic bag with the sheets and give it three days to absorb the offensive aroma.

After that, you should take the system apart and thoroughly clean the plastic shell. Retrobriting may also be worth considering. Hopefully the cat pee hasn't destroyed the internal electronics. Also, my condolences on your sister.
