Hi Guys, 

I've been playing around with the desktop version of Launchbox/Big Box for a while and done all the necessary configurations. I purchased a license to show my support with this great product.

I'm struggling with choosing an appropriate hardware platform to use Launch Box/Big Box. My requirements are very simple and are stated below:

- Box will be located in my living room connected to the TV via HDMI.
- Games include Sega Genesis, SNES, A Handful of a PSX and MAME roms (mainly fighting games like Street Fighter Alpha 2 etc). No new games/systems will ever be added.

I've heard that Windows 10 IoT on a Raspberry Pi is not suitable.

Will a Intel Compute Stick be ok? 

What version of the Intel NUC would suffice for a setup as simple as mine?
