Everything Video Games!

I miss when you could buy a system years ago, like a PS2 or N64 and it would come with a free game or an extra controller for MSRP. It's nigh impossible to get a topline system with a freebee, unless you want a Series S (which I don't lol).
I think that ended up being a big pull for the Wii was the pack in if Wii sports which was a hard fought battle that Reggie ended up winning for us.
 
Mario/Duck Hunt, Tetris, Super Mario World, Wii Sports... Nintendo had some serious heavy hitters as pack in titles, I miss those days
Super Mario world is one of the greatest games of all time. Still can’t believe it was a pack in. 1-2 switch (a tech demo ) should have been a pack in for demo of tech with rumble. Nintendo land had some solid games on it and some forgettable on the Wii U
 
I finished XC2: Torna yesterday. Followed it up by watching a couple of cut scenes from the main game, which hit much harder after playing Torna. There are several Switch games I’m looking forward to this year (TOTK, Hogwarts), but frankly what I’m most excited about is the new XC3 story content that will drop in December. I can’t get enough of this series.
 
ok... Phase 1 is complete. computer arrived yesterday and after some hurdles got Batocera installed, running, added a few additional ROMs to the existing systems, and scraped the artwork.

Phase 2 will be adding additional BIOS, so hopefully that goes smooth

I have an old Mac mini with 16gb of ram and 1tb ssd. think there is hope to do similar things as you are? or is source material primarily pc based ?

I'm not super knowledgeable when it comes to computers, especially Macs, but I'm assuming you'll be able to run a decent amount.

I'm using a PC with the following specs...I haven't tried PS3 yet to see if I can run that, but just about everything else works (assuming you have all the right bios files, which I still haven't quite figured out). anyway, without knowing the full deal of your computer is hard to say, but I'm guessing you'll be fine

also what's great about it, once you set it up on a flash drive you can plug that into any PC and will work if you boot directly to the flash drive
 
each console? or each block of games?
the whole enchilada!

I have a 512gb flash drive, about 5gb is needed for Batocera and the rest can be used for saving ROMs/BIOS.

if I plug my Batocera flashdrive into any PC and boot from the flashdrive I can play all the games on the drive on the computer (assuming it's as good/better than mine... if not as good it may not play the newer consoles)
