My most essential item is my power bank (I recommend the big 30k mah baseus one).
Following that, a cheap anker dock, a shoulder backpack, an xbox controller, a retractible usb c cable, headphones
Xbox controllers are just awesome with it and are really solid bluetooth-wise. I got a bunch while they were on sale for xmas so that my kids and I could all play 4 player couch co-op games on the tv. It's been a blast.
I'd tried the same with a rpi and some janky set of various controllers and it just flopped and was 95% spent troubleshooting. Once I standardized and get them setup it's been silky smooth and robust as hell even with new updates.
Nice that's awesome, what couch coop games have you been playing?
Lovers from a dangerous spacetime
Ibb and obb
Overcooked
Pikuniku
Stick fight
These are some of the few that my fairly young kids could "get" without too much frustration
