My goal would be to have this plugged into my bedroom for the following features, as simple as possible, with no swapping SD cards or anything:
- Netflix/Crave/etc.
- Media playing that recognizes my wireless NAS for movies
- Emulators that can play off of files from the NAS (or SD if necessary)
- Streaming Steam games via Moonlight from my desktop

Is this all possible at once or am I going to fiddle around with multiple configurations?

I'm pretty techsavvy, but new to the Pi and a bit overwhelmed, especially with very limited personal time nowadays. Any starting recommendations or answers is appreciated!
You could do it all, but generally you'd have different OS's for different purposes - one for a media centre, one for a game centre, etc.

But this is doable for sure. I'd suggest getting a mouse/keyboard interface.
