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.

I installed this program
https://www.grc.com/incontrol.htm
which prevents windows 11 from updating to version 24H2.
I then installed both classic shell 4.3.1
http://www.classicshel
and then explorer patcher
https://github.com/valinet/explor...r/releases [github.com]
I did run the powershell script
explorer patcher allows you to make the taskbar icons smaller and also drag the taskbar from the bottom of the screen to the side (if you want to)
for what be worth people replace thermal paste on the shield too sometimes after heavy use
so it shouldn't be a real deal breaker
know what I'm saying?
