HTPC suggestions

Hello,

I'm interested in an HTPC solution. Here is the situation: 

  1. 1080p TV, planning on 4K upgrade within the year
  2. I have a media streaming server running Plex

Here are the requirements for this HTPC:

  1. Video Playback -including 4K ( I do not want to build another one in a year)
  2. In-House Streaming (there will be a utp cable there) with Moonlight
  3. Retro Emulation (Snes/Mame... etc)

I looked into it and if i give up 4K playback support the Raspberry PI 3 with RetroPie&Moonlight&Kodi is great.

 

Diving a bit deeper i found the ODROID-C2.
It claims to support up to 4K 60fps and combining it with Batocera Linux & Kodi it should work great. However, looking at Batocera Linux website it is unknown if Moonlight is supported. 

 

Has anyone tried the ODROID-C2? 
Do you guys have any other suggestions on what i should buy,linux distros, or how i could approach this?
