    I bought one of these pcs and set it up myself with Batocera. I also designed a 3D-printed stand for it to stand it vertically. It's smaller than a Wii and I hooked it up with a USB Wii bar and a Sinden.

    This is fantastic. I love that there's a wide range of classic consoles up to ps2 and game cube. I love the idea of funding a c64 library and adding it, since the emulation is already there. I'll have to learn how to make additions to this... But definitely a great plug and play option. This is the first one I feel confident in purchasing.

      Very much this. I have an Optiplex 7040 micro. Bumped up the RAM and installed a 1TB SSD and 256GB m.2 drive, then dropped a prebuilt 512GB Batocera image on there before I started customizing the heck out of it.
      Only issues I have with it are minor, because when it's working, it's working beautifully!
      The issues are:
      * When connecting to a 4k TV, using custom boot videos is troublesome, because Batocera plays those videos before the video drivers are up and running, meaning it's using the more generic, raw Linux core that autodetects the TV's capabilities and plays the videos at that resolution. These little micros aren't keen to play 4k video, so it's very choppy. :D
      * Batocera v37 seems to have some kind of bug in it, where running the console more than an hour or so without inputs will cause some kind of freeze. If the freeze happens when the TV is off, you won't get a display when you turn it back on. You have to hard-boot to get functionality back. I think this might be a bus sleep bug of some sort, but that secondary m.2 drive is how I get around it.
      That m.2 drive has a Linux Lite installation on it, so I can use the box as a full desktop or stream Netflix/Disney+/Amazon/etc on it. That LL installation also does not suffer from the input freeze issue, so I usually let the system run that, then reboot to Batocera when I'm up for some gaming fun.
      I'm not sure I'm really on-board with those Retro Rager folks making money off this. I mean, these little HP and Dell micro systems are all over the place on eBay and Facebook Martketplace, and it doesn't take any real effort to upgrade and install these buggers with Batocera and the games you REALLY want on there. (Hey, if you're okay buying one of these, you're okay downloading your own game ROMs and rips. Where do you think THEY got the games from??)
      All these "entrepreneurs" are really doing is driving up the price and scarcity of these decommissioned systems.

    These mini PC's are the best if you are looking to upgrade your Arcade 1UP or Arcade Legends arcade machine. They play MAME well and truly give you an authentic experience.

      Have you used these in arcade 1up machine yet. No HDMI I'm basically interested in GameCube and PS2 games a few Wii u games but that probably it for an arcade 1up set. Otherwise I'd buy an Intek switch fighting stick and a brooks encoder like I played mortal Kombat 1 on it and it's excellent but Intex switch fighting stick but if you're looking to do that and I'm just looking to mod like somebody's arcade one up they're going to have to spend the money you know but would you recommend this for a couple little ones I got like for $200 arcade went up mortal kombats and whatnot

      @@jacobtoombs9206 I have, but honestly? I just basically "gut" the game boards from the Arcade 1up, purchase an HDMI mini board to still use the monitor, and use an Arcade Tankstick for the controls as they are prewired and have a built in USB encoder. I tell people if you don't feel comfortable installing a small motherboard on the Arcade 1UP monitor, you can use an old VGA or HDMI monitor. You will have to sand the monitor mount area as most regular monitors are slightly too large. But an older monitor will work. As for speakers, I use a set of Logitech USB speakers as they can be mounted at the top of the Arcade 1UP and give good sound and don't protrude. I always suggest the mini pc's as they have the grunt (Intel I3 and up) to do most arcade and console emulation. Now for PS1/2 id use an I5 based with 8GB RAM as the 3D can be demanding.

    I have a somewhat similar HP tiny form factor PC for emulation. Mine has the particular model number as the very last text on the back of the PC, it is really small text that you may need a magnifying glass to read. This will let you know which one it is. Great video BTW.

    The consoles I care about the most are the PlayStation 1 and 2 and the Nintendo 64 it absolutely annoys me that this is no longer for sale, it has literally everything that I'm looking for right now. I absolutely have zero interest and doing all of this on my own. I just want to plug in and play, is there any other emulation consoles that have the exact same games and play as well?

    Is there anything similar available? I am new to this whole retro gaming emulation. I have a super gaming computer. But I would much prefer a straight forward plug and play ready to go gaming console? or something with games all setup ready to play... Any help would be great. This looks like it had pretty much all the main console games etc. that I am after. Budget is not an issue.
    Also advice and links for good controllers and guns etc.... Would love a list my friend and some link. High Quality. But this looked great. Not sure if there is something I can plug in and run off my current PC?? Hope to hear from you soon!

      When you plug it into your network or connect to wifi it will show up in the network folder on your other computers as BATOCERA. Just open it on your computer and open the ROMs folder, there you will have all the systems as individual folders with the ROMs inside. Add and delete whatever you like.

    Thanks for showing original XBOX and Project Gotham Racing. I was disappointed but not surprised this system struggled to run it. Original XBOX is one of my favorite consoles and PGR one of my favorite games. I can't wait until most original XBOX games can be emulated to near perfection. It feels like it's getting close.

      Pretty sure the dolphin sensor is for if you are using original wii motes. The other guns that would work with this (Sinden, Aimtrak etc.), you'll have set up based on their req's. I've got an Aimtrak and it came with a light bar sensor that I since replaced with something much better that works for a 65 in. TV.
