I was commissioned by some friends to build game consoles for their kids.

We're building with some peculiar constraints because they're peculiar kids.

At some point, I'll start asking for game recs (I am not asking for game recs at this time.)

The goal is to build a Cartridge Based Game Console on top of retroarch or another open source project.

The "cartridges" will just be flash drives.

The game console might have one or two games installed on it's internal memory, but the rest of the games play *from* the flash drive, show up in the library when the flash drive is inserted, and disappear from the library when the flash drive is removed.

Rather than browsing based on console, all games from the local disk should be visible in one menu and all games from the flash drive should be available in another menu.

I *think* I can do this in retroarch without much extra configuration, but I haven't set up retroarch from scratch ... ever.
