There's SEGA Mega Drive & Genesis Classics Bundle

And it's currently 70% off on Fanatical

Or if you're really into retro gaming, you should buy Raspberry Pi and install RetroPie

Well, there's an issue with your request. Typically you're just not going to find legitimate sales of game collections across MANY consoles because that's not good business (which also shows in that you haven't found any).

Game collections tend to focus on one era, or console, or a publisher across several, never seemingly more than that.

So as far as that goes here on Steam or anywhere else like PSN or XBL, the best you're going to get are gaming collections like the Sega Classics collection mentioned above or compilations like Namco museum (on various consoles), etc.

I've an old gamer and I'm lucky in that I haven't sold a single game since the mid 1980s, so I still have mine to play on. BUt there are times when it's easier for me to have access to a ROM rather than get someone to help me get just one game out of the other room (I'm disabled).

And for that, there's Raspberry Pi running RetroArch. I'm not going to tell you any more than that as talking about any sort of questionable things are strictly forbidden on here. All you need to know is that Raspberry Pis are cheap and you WILL need to do a bit of work and following guides to get it up and running. It's not that hard though as long as you follow directions properly.

I'd recommend forking out for an arcade style joystick and buttons. You can get a set of 1 joystick with 8 buttons really cheap from Amazon, and they serve pretty well (they're about £30-40). You can get better quality, so there's plenty of options frankly. Wiring them up is a doddle as there's ONE board to wire them into with screw terminals. No soldering.

I feel that's your best bet because nothing else really comes close to a all-in-one solution. It's just not possible or feasible legitimately.

If you're just looking for Arcade emulation again, the Raspberry Pi is the best way but there's also the Pandora's Box all-in-one unit. They're OK. I have one, but it's not as good as the Raspberry Pi. It's just easy to use as it's plug and play.
