Sorry this discussion post is a bit late, I should probably set a reminder for it.

    I’m playing Medabots: Kabuto for GBA. It’s a pretty fun although simple JRPG. It has a neat unit customization system, enjoyable story and great art/music.
    Combat is unique in a way that can be a bit annoying (you only have a partial control on who to target) but it’s something one can get used to and work around to some extent.

    I also installed The Sims 2 (Ultimate Collection, not the Legacy one) but I didn’t really spend much time playing it on the Deck (I usually default to my desktop playthrough). Based on a short test I did manage to do it seems to be working and controlling pretty well so that’s promising at least.

    Edit: I spent some time playing TS2 on the Deck. Beyond some short freezes when browsing through larger lists of content (clothing, furniture etc) the game runs really good, as expected. Unfortunately I don’t find the controls on Deck to be comfortable enough to keep going - basic keyboard and mouse setup is the way for me with this one.

      If you’re playing GBA JRPGs, I’d like to recommend Golden Sun 1&2 as fantastic games.

        They’re ready and waiting actually! I just want to finish other things (including Medabots) before starting another big title - I already have trouble keeping myself from constant game hopping as it is. Good suggestion though.
