But i want to spend 3 hours trying to set up a NES emularor.

At this point, I'm not sure why someone would buy a Pi. I used my Pi 3 for years and got it super cheap on release.

You mean why anyone would buy a new Pi that is not a Pi3 ? Pi4 can boot from USB meaning that the usage of a SD card can be omitted completely. Not sure a Pi3 can do that or do that easily ?

I'm using a Pi 3B+ this way, booting from a usb nvme enclosure. It probably works with the 3B as well.
