    You joke now, but back in 2014, this thing was absolutely better than some consoles. Also, can your console heat an entire room? I didn’t think so

    Consoles are better is you have a bunch of friends over and you want to pass the controllers around on the couch in the living room.

    PC is better for the battlestation in your room.

      I took my old gaming rig and set it up in the living room. Hooked it straight to the TV, got a wireless keyboard and 4 controllers. Couch gaming, emulators, streaming, whatever the hell I want.

        Oh that’s not a bad idea. I just upgraded my desktop, and was thinking of turning the remains into a media server, but media server plus emulation station sounds much better.

        I just bought a budget micro PC to do the same. I just want to play some retro games on the living room TV so the performance is good enough.
