How powerful is Pinephone Pro? (hexbear.net)

I've been using my OnePlus 6t since launch and love it, but I am very interested in Linux phones now. I've been an early adopter before, but it's finally getting where I think I need it to be to try. I pretty much only do basic phone functions and emulation. Would a Pinephone Pro have the power to run something like a Wii or 3ds game? What about an older ported game like STALKER? Curious just how much it could do

I'd be curious to here what it is. I have used ARM64 devices for gaming in the past but struggled to even play OpenMW on low settings

What's the newest device you've used? Would be a giant pain in the ass, but I'm curious what a Snapdragon 8 gen 2 could do for it. Our modern phones are really powerful, I think some of the newest ones could probably do OpenMW and STALKER given someone smarter than me was doing it 💀

I am not sure. It was either the Raspberry Pi 4 or the ROCKPro64
