Shining Force Gaiden translations out there? That'd be cool.

I found you want an emulation box that outputs hdmi and has built in cartridge slots, it is a nice system, especially for the price. The biggest draw is getting to physically put your carts in the system and to use your original controllers without needing an adapter.
If you just want to play games in HDMI and like the convenience of playing roms files from disc, a PC or Raspberry Pi or the like is your best bet, and will be a more robust set up with more platforms to choose from.

The second one, Shining Force: The Sword of Hajya, was released in North America.
Nothing for the first Shining Force Gaiden as far as I know.

SRAM saves dump to the system (so no dead batteries)

Translation patches are a piece of cake to apply, just download one from ROMhacking.net or whatever and put the file on an SD card that plugs into the Retron
