If only Nintendo did the NFC cartridges thing with their Mini NES. That would've been so awesome and maybe somehow they could've had third parties rerelease thier own games independently through that mechanism.

Note that all the NFC does is to tell the emulator what to load.

  Ideal might've been to put a URL to image dumps on the NFC, spend a few seconds downloading, store them somewhere then run them in the emulator.

    True, but as this was a Pi2, it would either require a usb wifi dongle, or leaving the ethernet plugged in all the time.

      That implies it would be redownloaded every time rather than just the check for the ROM first and download if absent.
