Question: I would love to have the following setup: a chromecast-style dongle running some emulator with a bunch of roms, plugged into the HDMI port of a tv; a couple of wifi controllers to play.
Is it possible?

It's called Raspberry Pi.
Check out PiMAME or RetroPie. The Raspberry Pi can emulate a lot of the stuff out there.
Most of the things it can't emulate are too recent anyway.
you beat me to it. I just logged in to post about raspberry pi. any idea what wireless controllers are supported?
additionally most chinese android tv dongles can run mame games.
Does it HAVE to be a dongle? The Ouya works great for this.

A softmodded Wii will easily do this, and you can get them secondhand for cheap these days.
