Recommendations for Steam Deck emulations

[Mike S]

Title says it all. What games do you recommend? To make things simple I’ll also put a list here of games I’m already considering by platform. Some are first time plays, some I’ve bought multiple times over, some are filled with personal nostalgia, and others are simply not available by legitimate means. I want to have them all in one convenient place.

Donkey Kong Country Trilogy
Super Metroid
Zelda: A Link to the Past
Jurassic Park
Aladdin
The Lion King
Super Godzilla

Game Boy/Color:
Metroid 2
Wario Land series
Super Mario Bros. Deluxe

Genesis:
Aladdin
Jurassic Park Rampage edition

*I’m not interested in Sonic, lol

N64:
Banjo Kazooie & Tooie
Donkey Kong 64
Conker’s Bad Fur Day
Yoshi’s Story
Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
Ocarina of Time & Majora’s Mask
Paper Mario
Star Fox 64

So what have you guys got? I’ve posted this same thread on WDWMagic and will be updating this list with answers from there as well.

I absolutely love the Steam Deck. It is such a nifty piece of hardware, I can't recommend it enough. When I get home, I'll check out what exactly I got on there.

@Mike S To save myself from double posting:
GBA:
Advance Wars 1 & 2. It's a turn-based strategy game that works great on GBA.
Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga.

Gamecube/Wii:
Metroid Prime Trilogy
Viewtiful Joe

Xbox:
Ultimate Spiderman-Cel-shaded sandbox and you play as venom/eat people. It's a good time.

Dreamcast:
Vigilante 8 2nd Offense-car fighter a la Twisted Metal but bonkers time travel plot and upgradable vehicles.
Power Stone: 3D arena fighter
(not saying Sonic because you don't like it but Sonic Adventure 2)

Are you using any modern pc games on it as well? I'm currently deep into Fallout 76 on my Steam Deck.
