Second this. My Redmi 12 can run heavier PSP games and NDS. I didn’t try 3DS yet as I don’t know any worthwhile games and RetroArch requires some setup IIRC, which I haven’t been in the mood to do. Didn’t try PS2 either.
Just find a suitable gamepad. I have a cheap PS2 shaped ergonomic one I got for like 15 USD (it just says X3 Wireless Controller or some such; don’t remember the brand)


One weird thing in Alundra 2, is that if you turn the camera while moving in certain direction, you continue moving in that (map) direction even if, from the new angle, you are pushing the D-Pad in the opposite direction. You have to release the D-Pad and press again to go in the new correct direction
