What are some (realistic) things you wanted to get for a while, just for fun?

A mini pc for emulation. I've been following the emulation scene for years, particularly for Android over the last 5-6 years. I ride the bus to and from work, so it's always been nice to have them. For home, I have a Rasobery Pi 3B. It's nice. But it is a little outdated, and would like a boost in power. Thought about getting the RP5 if it ever comes out.
However, some companies are now starting to really go all in on mini PCs. For more modern PC gaming, it's not gonna get you the greatest experience. And I have a gaming PC right now. But I find that I prefer to run my emulators sitting on the couch. And now a lot of these minis are able to emulate up to PS3 and 360. Or at least as well as the emulators can work. However, for a model running the specs I want, I'm currently looking at anywhere from $700-900. So it might be a bit longer till I can afford one. Maybe with tax money if nothing else comes up.
