I've done both. The shield is both MUCH MUCH MUCH easier to setup and is so much more powerful than the Pi that N64, PS1, and GameCube Games are more likely to play well. OP didn't mention being on a budget. They also didn't mention their Linux skill level. Given thosee facts the shield is worth the price difference. They're not really saving money if they can't get the Pi working.
