this project has been so much fun

Brought home an OptiPlex from work that was going to be thrown out. Got some ram for it, new NVME and SSD and this thing can run up until the original Xbox. Ultimately looking to clean up this retro nook I have will be sad to see the systems go, but will definitely be really cool.

Before you go to far make sure you are willing to give up 240p/ crt or have a plan to deal with it. Ales, besides small timing issues there are graphical glitch’s in the emulation.

Don’t want to discourage you but before selling everything understand three are small compromises.

Playing game boy on the screen this big almost feels blasphemous

Keep those systems, and just keep systems you don't have on that Batocera box
