Hey all, I’m interested in playing some emulated games on my steamdeck, but I’m not sure where to start.

I’ve been having fun with Super Mario World, but a good chunk of that is because I played it a lot as a kid, so much of my enjoyment is from nostalgia.

Problem is, I didn’t play many too many games when I was a kid…

What older games out there would you say hold up in 2025? So that regardless of the nostalgia factor, they can be enjoyed by someone like me

    2d games in general and basically anything that isn’t pre-analogue stick 3d. Some games have quality of life mods/ patches available that make camera not suck, etc.
