I personally use Batocera side booted off of a flashdrive. I dont have any experience with emulationstation. Have you tried Bato? its great if you can get over the minor difficulty in getting your games onto it. I use it so i dont clog up my steam os with emulators :)

I originally used it but I didn't really like having to go into yet another application just to see all my games. I think the UI looks really good though--I just prefer seeing all my games in my actual Steam library as opposed to being split up by launchers.

Absolutely love it, it's one of the things I use most on my Steam Deck. Pretty much replaced my Wii as my go-to emulation console since I can dock it and play these games on the big screen. Wonderful interface, everything's all neat and organized and I love the screen-saver feature of being able to play whatever game it happens to be previewing. Nothing but love for Emulation Station and the devs that make it possible.

For me its awesome! I was already use to it because i use Knulli on my retro handhelds. I prefer to open ES and see all my games there with cover art and video sample and the info about the game, i also organize them by genre, etc. I like to keep my steam games separate from my giant rom library that i totally own the originals. And since i use ES on all the retro stuff i have, i can simple copy my library with the art and videos to another sd card if i get a new retro console and i dont need to scrape everything again.
