How powerful is Pinephone Pro?

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...

Extra point regarding power consumption:

It's possible to trade a small sub-part of the open U-Boot bootloader and use a proprietary T-FA and DRAM initialisation from Rockchip that enables DRAM downclocking on the phone's RK3399 and this saves a ton of power, bringing the PinePhone Pro to a much more usable range.

See here: https://xnux.eu/log/091.html

I've been using that together with SailfishOS on mine.
I might try this rk2aw+drbin+U-Boot on my PineBook Pro, too.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is just the same film made over and over again with different characters.

@AimeeMaroux Why the "Opinions" hashtag, though? Isn't there some "MoviesFact" one?
