I know this isn’t quite the same, but kodi - normally used for movies/videos - has the capacity to manage retro games. There is a plug-in for the Internet Archive gaming library. I have an Nvidia Shield for streaming and have used it for retro games. Doesn’t really go higher than N64, but there are some good SNES game (Ghouls n Ghosts). I’m sure if you have a boss PC you could play more recent games! Source: over 2 years ago
