I agree! Upgraded from a Wii to a Lenovo M93p tiny ($50 USD) so that I could emulate all my old games and play select PC games I loved from back in the day (Just Cause 2, GTA IV, Fallout 3 etc).

Then I went to m710q…which I broke by being a little to hasty swapping CPU :(

(Turned out to be a blessing in disguise… as the next tiny I got - a P330 - got me onto self hosting etc as well as gaming).

TL;DR: yeah, those “mini-micro-tiny” machines are pretty sweet and cheap.
