      There are not many games I would get/build a retro handheld, but this is one that I would.

    Pretty much any console that your phone can emulate is an option. That gives you your pick of whatever consoles and genres you like within the capabilities of your phone basically.

      I’ve got an RG505 and can play up to ps2. Was just looking for games that might be fun or nice to play on a bus ride.

        Ace Combat 2 and 3 (PSX), each mission is short and the flight controls are great. I expect the PS2 ace combat games to be equally great.

        Chu Chu Rocket (DC) if you’re into puzzle

        Neo Bomberman (Neo Geo), one of the best looking Bomberman games. It has both a traditional stage mode and a battle mode.

    +1 towards turn-based games for your commute, keeps it easy to still be engaged with everything around you so you don’t miss a stop or something. i really love the Mystery Dungeon games, which are roguelikes in the literal sense that they’re procedurally generated dungeon crawlers where you start from scratch (or scratch-ish depending on how beginner friendly the title) when you die. the pokémon spinoffs are the most well known but there have been a lot of crossovers with other series as well as a line of completely original games called Shiren the Wanderer

    i also have to mention Densha De Go, not because they would be particularly feasible but c’mon. don’t you wanna drive a train while riding a train? it’s real-er than VR!
