That RPIs first of all do not cost only 30 dollars anymore. And the ones you might find that are so cheap will not be able to actually run stuff from maybe N64 upwards. The more lower end they are the less will it work well.

N100's are where it's at, definitely more expensive than $30. But so much more power for the money.

You can also buy ryzen 3000 based mini or sff PCs for less than $100.
