I don't think something like that will ever exist. There is stuff like the R36S (https://r36sgameconsole.com/) that is great for older games up to the PS1. That thing also runs emulationstation and arkOS.

But PS3 emulation (and PS2 to some extent) is fairly taxing - so a 150 bucks device will most likely never be able to provide a good experience. I'm pretty sure that RPCS3 is expecting a RX5000 or a GTX 2000 series card which by itself costs more than 150 bucks, even now lol.
