If you have another console, there are some ways to stream from them that I think are worth mentioning to pad out what you can do on the go.
In steam there's an app called xbplay, it's a few bucks but it made the process of streaming from an Xbox pretty simple for me, so i found it worth it.
Not in steam, but easy enough to set up (and free) is chiaki-ng, that's for Playstation.
If you have some time for setup and obtaining the games, emudeck is good for playing old games from systems all the way up to Xbox and ps2 (ish). Though i use it for older ones.
If you like those vampire survivor games they all run great on the deck and are usually cheap (vampire survivor, megabonk, brotato, deep rock galactic survivor)
Rocket league
From there, maybe something older you never played, it'll probably be on sale. Maybe dead rising 1 or 2, serious Sam or doom. Speaking of doom, that similar Warhammer 40k game boltgun is 60% off at the moment.
