I'm about to take a job where ill be traveling... a LOT. I want to build the ultimate emulator thing so i can play everything anytime, and be able to plug it into a hotel tv if possible. Maybe even some sort of multi player capability.

Do i go the laptop route? Is there a small dedicated device i can buy?

Money is not an issue.

If all you want to do is emulate, why wouldn't you just get a laptop? My 2012 piece of shit laptop can emulate everything up to the GameCube at full speed.

All "emulation devices" you'll find are made by shitty Chinese companies, so don't go that route.

As for plugging it into a hotel TV, you'll have to do some research. It should be easy to plug a laptop into a TV but it depends on what ports your laptop has. (Also, you may need different connectors depending on whether the hotel has newer HDTVs or old CRTs.) Once you've figured that out, just get a wireless bluetooth gamepad, pull up an emulator, and you're set.

If you have the technical knowhow, you can get a RaspberryPi and install all the emulators. Add a controller or two, a microSD card for data, HDMI cable, a case, and you're set. Total cost $100 or so, less if you already have the relevant parts. The computer itself is about the size of a sardine tin. The controllers themselves will be larger.

There's a couple of devices, like the open pandora, there's two new models the Pyra, (pic related) and the GDP win. that can do all of that, but they aren't launched yet.

The open pandora is 1 ghz, the GDP win 1.4 ghz and the Pyra 2.5 ghz.

In my experience laptops are useless in a lot of situations, it's better something that you can get out of the pocket and play.

Or just buy a PSP model 2000 or 3000, you can get a cheap cable that connects to the tv.

just get a nice gaming laptop then. you can get by with less but you won't have to fuck with the settings on the emulators of things like psx.

Android phone with a USB type-C port in the bottom. You can get little 3-way hubs that let you plug in HDMI, a charging cable and a regular USB for a controller. Plenty of flagships coming out of China with great chipsets and screens for next to nothing and plenty of emulator support as well. If you want something a bit more substantial and less fiddly though, a laptop is the way to go.
