I am a total noob to emulation and i need to know where to get started. what i want to do is is emulate anything i can from nes up as well as doing htpc on the same pc. But i am completely clueless on any emulation and what is needed i have watched a little on you tube but that gets confusing.. Please Need Help!!!

My advice is to get one system working and then worry about the next one. Do you have any ROMs for any of the games. That is one of the 1st things you will need along with getting the emulators you would need for the ROMs.

well when it comes to computers themselves i am pretty savy, just unfamiliar with emulation, i know how to make a droid box and pi system but so many back and fourth information out there it can get confusing. i have a pc for everything already built i have a small form factor pc running B450 motherboard with 16 gigs ddr ram and ryzen 5 chip and a 1060ti graphics card running out of a nod 202 case and i am looking to combine things a emulator system/htpc running kodi etc

thank you for that. but i was curious if to use launchbox is retroarch needed. or can stand alone emulator be placed in launchbox and used from the front end. like i said all of this is confusing to me

You can use pretty much any emulator you want as long as the emulator supports launching via command line, very few emulators do not support this.

Like DOS76 said, start with one system and get it working first and move on from there.
