Controller Support:
Wii Remote, Gamecube, NES, SNES, and hopefully Xbox360 either internally or through external adapters

Basically cramming a small form computer into a NES case and running emulators? I would love to see the end result. (Move video connecotrs to back for better visual appeal?)

Yup. Did that. I just need to figure out what to do with the remaining 2 spaces.

In any case, the i3 was perfect. Very little difference from my 4.3GHz 3820, and unlike the G3220, it doesn't dip below 60fps in 2Player Mode. So I guess Dolphin's sweet spot is 3.4GHz

I haven't tested other games yet. I'm limited to one USB port, and my hub isn't working too well. But I think this build came out well.

Thanks for the help guys, I would have went full i5 if not for this thread.

Final Specs:
3.4GHz i3 4130 -- undervolted -200mV
2x4GB 1333MHz 1.65V
ASROCK Z97E/ac ITX (should have gone H87)
GALAXY 750TI SLIM
160W PSU (only 92W on the 12V rail)
