Best deck games for a flight? (as in...possibly running on batteries) (lemm.ee)

Hi guys! So, yeah...Which games are good for a nice gaming session while on a flight? Last time I played one of the newer Tomb Raider games, and while performance was good, it decked (heh) the battery in less than 1h... So, while I like these too, if the flight doesn't have a socket under the seat I might want to play games that don't kill the battery immediately. What's your best/most addictive Deck games? Also, after the whole big N mess...how's the Switch emulation these days?

Here's a similar question, my answer should also be relevant to your question.

As for Switch emulation, yuzu still runs great, with many playable games on the deck. If you don't have the AppImage or Flatpak already, make sure to get it from a reputable source.

Edit: Or, if you're lazy, just use Ryujinx (also available in EmuDeck).
