I currently play most games thru emulators but been wondering whether it is worth it to get the Switch V1 version for handheld.

my plan would be putting the roms onto the Switch and then play handheld (is this possible?)

Playing when traveling, a few hours in bed before sleeping or cozy up next to the heather in the evening seems nice. However is it still worth around €300 euro for it, may I have your opinion on the matter?

Absolutely, v1 is the easiest Switch version to jailbreak. You could do it with a piece of foil or a $5 jig from amazon.

Not sure if you mean Switch ROMS or retro console ROMs, but a jailbroken Switch plays both, you'll just need to install RetroArch for retro games.

You can also use Nintendo's own emulators to play most NES, SNES, GB, GBC, GBA, and Genesis games. Nicer interface and has rewind.
