If you're switching over with gaming in mind, then using Bazzite or Nobara will make it so you have no head banging. Bazzite has everything you need for gaming all ready to go, and since it's an immutable distro, it'll be difficult for a newbie to fuck up on accident.

can it run some emulator? like nintendo or ps or ps2?

Sure, if you want to. I run Bazzite on my Steam Deck, and frequently emulate GBA and Switch games. I've never done any Playstation (yet), but I know there's emulators for them. And for many other consoles as well.

Emulators aren't installed by default on Bazzite though, since it's geared more towards PC gaming. They're pretty easy to install though.
