Phone Gamepads

General Guidelines

Not all games work with all control devices. Check this to see what gaming devices work best with what types of games.
Vibration on Android doesn't work via bluetooth for most controllers

Vibration on Anrdoid only works via USB connection in general as most controllers only connect via Xbox Mode. For some weird reason, they do work via bluteooth on PC but there are tons of internet forums discussing how in bluetooth mode, vibration doesn't work.
Test your phone's ability to game for long time-

-especially if you're ordering a phone controller without a cooler
It was an eye opener when I realizeed that my phone gets pretty hot even in a few seconds and even if it might not have thermal issues, high temperatures is bad for your battery in general.

Emulation on Android

Just  spend a few days with emulation and gaming on my terrible phone (Iqoo Z9s Pro 5G with 7Gen 3 that heats up quickly to 44°C ) and here's some findings:
1) Citron is best for Switch. All others give worse performance, so much worse that I thought to give up Switch emulation at all.
2) Citra is best for 3DS. Didn't bother with others, didn't need to.
3) PPSSPP is best for PSP. Didn't bother with others, didn't need to.
4) NetherSX2 patched based on AetherSX2 is best for PS2 emulation.
5) Stay away from Windows Emulation. Find the same games on switch and play them there. In rare cases like very old games that are only on Windows might work but so so so so so many issues that you might as well give up.
6) Many unofficial ports of many games exist but apart from a few they are all buggy.

Should probably put this on the website somewhere.
