What stick should I get? (self.retrogaming)

So I'm looking for a stick for my brother in law. He has some old firesticks, older models. But if that won't work, I'm looking for a stick that can run retroarch, up to PS2, and uses bluetooth to allow the PS5 controller to connect.

Let him get a stick then and laugh when his PS2 games run at 2fps. Simply isn't possible yet in stick format. Rpi4 won't even do PS2 in playable framerates

I don't have a Pi 5 to try (I've just got a Pi 4), but apparently PS2 is doable, at least for some games: https://www.reddit.com/r/RetroPie/comments/1bekm56/playstation_2_emulation_on_raspberry_pi_5/kv261pp/ (sorry for Reddit link)
