Better version:

:MENU
cls
echo 1-QPC2
echo 2-QemuLator
echo 3-QLay
echo 4-Quit

echo Which one? /C:1234
IF errorlevel 4 goto QUIT
IF errorlevel 3 goto QLAY
IF errorlevel 2 goto QEMULATOR
IF errorlevel 1 goto QPC2

:QUIT
cls
exit

:QLAY
echo QLAY
c:\qpc2\qpc2.exe
goto MENU

:QEMULATOR
echo QEMULATOR
c:\Q-emuLator\QemuLator.exe
goto MENU

:QPC2
echo QPC2
c:\qlay2\qlay2.exe
goto MENU


Of course you replace 'c:' with the flash drive letter, as you put all
batch files in c:\batch and included that in the PATH (of course you
have (8-)# )
