An alternative approach: break side projects down into short-term projects. Basically minimum viable products. This shortens the time to feedback and minimizes the opportunity cost from picking the wrong one.
It's generally easier to optimize this path, then to "pick the right idea." Because it's basically impossible to know ahead of time. And, besides, you'll learn a lot through each iteration. Good luck!
