Balatro, although I wish there was a mobile version, because it seems like a waste to play it on the Deck.
I got Skater XL from a recent Humble Bundle, and it runs really well. If you've ever played the Skate series, the controls are really similar where you do almost everything with the sticks, so I've unfortunately kinda stopped playing it on the Deck after someone online made a good point that it'll probably wear the sticks out really fast. I also got Bomb Rush Cyberfunk recently, and it's a good facsimile until Sega releases a new Jet Set Radio.
Other than that, a bunch of shmups and emulated games, especially MAME.

For what it’s worth, the stick’s are really easily replaceable. Maybe 15 minutes for the whole procedure and that’s just time spent unscrewing it.
I was surprised how expensive those replacements were though
