Why put a system to emulate a system inside a system that does 30$ second hand that already does exactly that en does that extremely well?
Or do you want this:

So you can play zillions of unbought stuff?

That would a better option for me but at that price I can just buy the games I want.

As for the PSU well yeah when I found that pico one I thought it was expensive too but a cheaper one might be found on ebay.  Otherwise I don't see why one can't be found that was designed for a mini motherboard.

Would it be possible to just use the laptop for this just without the screen?

well i dont think the mobo will fit in the NES case.  that's the whole point of the mini-itx board i guess.  i mean, i dont know for sure, but im assuming thats why everyone buys a new mini mobo for it.  i think for the time being though, ill just get the laptop loaded with all the stuff i want...put it in my entertainment center and maybe put a usb hub in front of it or something.  it wont look as cool as a NES, but it will accomplish the same thing, but without all the money spent.
