cringeworthy name trying to compete with raspberry pie 
that aside its a great idea but crippled pricewise by microsoft licensing.
having said all that, i personally love the idea of a windows mini-pc to compete against retropie considering windows mame emulators and front ends are pretty sweet but its going to be hard to justify this over a used full size dell optiplex you can pick up on ebay for the same price or less.

Yeah, running a full size is pretty cheap, you can get away with a pretty light graphics card on a MAME machine. I actually prefer an old used AMD graphics card that works arcadevga to run on an old school CRT. All you got to get is a decent processor and you have a mean Arcade PC. Not nearly as costly as a modern gaming machine with a good graphics card.
