Anyway, if your goal is retro gaming, a Raspberry Pi is smaller and more energy-efficient for these types of tasks, but honestly, once you add in a case, a good power supply (RPi's are picky with respect to power...), and storage, it is probably at the same price or even more than this $130 machine. But if you are interested in more modern gaming or more powerful emulation, this system would be better and give you more flexibility for future upgrades.
Just saying buyers might want to read up.

My stance remains that TDP is only really valuable for deciding how big of a heatsink to slap on something, and outside of that is just something for nerds to argue about.

Anyway, not saying that one should or should not do this--just commenting that plenty of folks have had success with it despite the *official* guidance.
