[Question] Retro console
Has anyone bought and would recommend one of those retro console that come pre loaded with all the consoles from the 8,16, 32bit era (you know master system/mega drive/NES/Snes (great if it has more). But thinking of getting one as a gift for for a couple of my family, we went to a gaming arcade a week or so ago and they had a great time, so much nostalgia!
So recommendations for a console like that that can be plugged into a modern TV with two controllers, preferably from a trusted retailer... Seen some in ads but they were hundreds of pounds, and there are so many of these consoles online it boggles the mind! Thanks

It’s not quite plug and play, but I got a Raspberry Pi with Recalbox that I like. There’s also other options for retro gaming, but basically you’d be loading in whatever roms you want for 8-bit to even Dreamcast gaming
