So.... a PC?
They really are close to plug and play. You need to know that parts are compatible, but that's true for anything.
No, a PC ecosystem where all the parts are shrouded and there are no wires to futz with.
It isn't unrealistic - the original Starfox and Yoshi's Island games were on cartridges, which included 3D acceleration (Super FX) hardware that increased the performance over the standard SNES. For the player to use it, all they had to do was just insert the cart into the SNES and start playing. The Nintendo 64 also had RAM expansion Paks that plugged into the machine, doubling the RAM to a massive 8 megabytes, in less than 10 seconds.
