Xbox: 360 Batocera _verified_

Points for ambition, but the Xbox 360 makes a better donor for its original library than a retro emulation box.

Batocera.linux is an open-source retro gaming OS focused on consoles and arcade systems. It runs on PCs, single-board computers (Raspberry Pi, Odroid), and some x86-based mini-PCs. Batocera does not natively run on original Xbox 360 consoles, and full Xbox 360 emulation is demanding; Emulating Xbox 360 games is generally done on modern x86_64 PCs using specialized emulators (notably Xenia), not on Batocera on low-power SBCs. However, Batocera can host PC builds that run emulators on capable x86 hardware and can be a convenient frontend for organizing and launching supported game systems alongside other retro platforms. xbox 360 batocera
