I usually feel like these preloaded drives are a rip off but this one seems to be really nice. it's not just a messy dump of ROMs. It's got all the front ends screenshots, themes, videos, etc.. I think it's really worth it to have a turn key set up like this. I have a pretty extensive collection of ROMs and I still would consider buying this just so I don't have to go through the hassle of setting all the crap up and scraping the screenshots and stuff.

Buying other peoples build hasnt made sense in a long time. Hyperspin was such a huge pain in the ass to setup and took so long to get media/configs handled, that it was far more worthwhile to pay for someone else's build than spend 80 hours on your own. But with Launchbox, after you've downloaded the roms and put them where they belong, you can have your full build setup and config'd in just an hour or two.

It needs windows if you want to run Emulation Station/Launchbox/Playnite. The reason is, the installation is using those executables... That said, if all you want is the games, all of the games would work fine on a Steam Deck. You'd just need to install a different front-end with emulators for Steam Deck, then tell them where all the files are on the External Drive. It should import them like normal. I'd advise against this though unless you have horrifically slow internet. Its so much easier/cheaper to just build your own build for SteamDeck on an external than to try and adapt somebody elses.
