I’ve installed Emudeck on my device, the process was really easy to follow, here’s a guide.

I just made this post to share info and suggestions on the best games to try. Right now I’m playing a (totally owned) rom of Zelda breath of the wild and so far is flawless (although stuck to 30 fps x some reason). Any suggestion for other good game??

        Retrodeck for me too. I found the devs very helpful and approachable. The work they are doing with the EmulationStation DE devs is making both better and really taking controller support to the next level.

        I use it and it’s pretty good. They are open to people’s idea.

      Unfortunately I don’t have an external link about it, can only pin point a quite lenghty conversation and support request I had with a couple of the PCSX2 developers that happened in their Discord server. You can jump to the start of the conversation (if you are in the PCSX2 Discord server) using this link.

      The conversation started after I asked them for support for the render window not taking the whole screen when attached to a 4:3 monitor, and told me about why they don’t support at all PCSX2 installs made my Emudeck. Duckstation appears to also not support Emudeck for the lack of cooperation from the project.

        Interesting. I had actually been using emudeck because they provide a non-retroarch version of Duckstation (since Retroarch is run by a transphobic shithead)

        At the end of the day, the platforms I most emulate on my steam deck are PS1 and PS2 with wii u and switch as mostly a “Ha, take that Nintendo. But… there are much better games to play than BOTW so…”. Suspect the answer is to just use steam rom manager and standalone installs and was leaning toward doing that when I eventually upgrade to an OLED.

        But this is pretty disappointing and I would love to read more.

        But what are the current alternatives? Really seems like the options are either using Emudeck or a whole lot more work
