If you are somewhat tech savvy I recommend the 64GB model paired with a 512GB or 1TB micro SD card. You can always upgrade the internal SSD if necessary. The issue with the 64GB is shaders must be stored on internal drive, not SD card, so between the OS and shaders the drive fills up fast.
If you don't feel like messing with opening the deck up, go for the 256GB model paired with a 1TB micro SD card.
The 512GB model only worth it for anti glare screen if you feel like you'll be playing it often outside.
Some must have programs for deck:
Decky loader - plugin manager for themes, power tools, and much more
EmuDeck- old school games emulation
Steam Rom Manager - adds your emulation game to steam, categorized by system with full game box and cover art
I also highly recommended a 45w power bank, the decks biggest weakness is battery life, you'll want a battery pack for travel
Be aware not all games run out of the box. Some require tweaking or custom proton versions to run properly.
ProtonDB.com lists game compatibility for all games and is a great resource, it's also a plug-in for decky

My son wanted a meta 2 but I think he'd be more amped about this, being a gamer I think he'd get bored with a headset.

You can look into getting an Ayaneo product. They're pretty expensive though.
It plays A-list titles well. You can side-load nearly anything, if that's your thing. It is expandable. It docks with my HDTV and plays nicely with a wireless X-box controller.
For the price, you really can't beat it.

The 64gb is too small even if you plan to run most things on microsd, as the shaders will take up space on the internal storage. There is a tool to circumvent this but requires more tinkering than you may be comfortable with.
And in my opinion the 512gb does not offer enough to make the price worth it. The antiglare screen is also a bit divisive. Some like it, some don't.
Telling myself I don't neeeeed it right now...
