I mainly play retro and indie games. I just got my hands on a Steam Deck, so I'm hoping to clear out my backlog much quicker.

Gameplay wise? This game is incredibly lame. An unbalanced playable character roster, boring level design, and the game overall being indecisive about the genre it wants to be. But Trio the Punch more than makes up for it with how absolutely ridiculous and stupid it is. The enemies are goofy as hell, and I mean what other arcade game lets you fight Colonel Sanders? I'd recommend it for anyone who likes weird games. It's on the Switch eShop, but just play the english version on Mame, as the poor translation holds half of the game's charm.
This game is just awesome. They took the first game's surreal style and humor and... well, made another one with several improvements to the gameplay. Not only is it more forgiving with the 'make your own beat' mechanics, but the music is even funkier than the first game's tunes. The battle mode is incredibly fun to play with a friend, and is also responsible for the single greatest video ever uploaded onto Youtube (Anything goes, even CHINESE!) Also, this game gets my award for the least threatening villain in a video game.
I don't know how Nintendo does it, but the amount of charm put into the first WarioWare alone is mind-boggling, especially when you take into consideration how lifeless the modern Mario games feel these days (I'm looking at you, NSMB series.) The initial gameplay mechanics seem really boring on paper, but the fact that Nintendo went above and beyond to give this game goofy humor that most of their series lack makes this entire series worth it.
