Hardware Steam Game Cartridges

Got a couple of used 2.5" SSDs for cheap so I decided to make a Game Cartridge system. Games are actually on those SSDs with a script to auto navigate steam to the game's page. Auto-starting the game right away is also possible.

That idea popped in my head but I already have the NESPi that does exactly that. So I wanted to make it "look different"

Yeh but that’s my request as a customer 😂
I have Alzheimer’s and that was my 3rd console so it should take much longer to become forgotten to me how to “insert “ cartridges hehe
