The important thing is that they are not "addictive" or have (a lot of) ads. I can recommend GCompris, SuperTuxKart and TowerJumper.

I tried to list everything I have played that can be emulated on an android platform, excluding very hard games or games with scary/adult elements.

Easy-tier

Pokemon Fire Red / Leaf Green (GBA)
Pokemon Emerald (GBA)
Pokemon Platinum (DS)
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue team (GBA)
Chrono Trigger (SNES or DS)

Mid-tier

The Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap (GBA)

Hard-tier

Mega Man X / X2 (SNES)

You can get most of the roms from Vimm's Lair or CDRomance

vimms lair has been cracked down by nintendo and other companies so you can't get much. cdromance too i think. i don't remember.

i highly recommend using myrient.erista.me (or an easier to use search-type tool via https://myrient.mahou.one/). for some advanced systems like the wii or ps3 you sadly need to convert the isos or roms into usable mediums.

more cool shit at fmhy.net
