What's the point? If you're gonna alter the OG equipment to such an extreme extent like removing the CD drive, then you're not going to play original copies on it anyways. Might as well just run an emulator.
The point is to attempt it and do it with the original hardware without "trimming" the board.
It's an exercise in space management, not emulation.
Emulation is what it sounds like. Emulating the original thing.
This is the original thing. Just smaller.
But it's not the original thing. It's missing a core feature. So it is emulation.
Please see my reply next to yours explaining the differences and why this still matters
