Checkmate, atheists

You should take your own advice for posting this shit six times today you fucking mutt

It uses a basic GNU/Linux OS with Proton to play non natives games.

You can run any GNU/Linux application on it, you can also install windows, or use WINE.

>implying I'm OP
I don't make threads.

A compatibility layer (Proton) is not the same as an emulator, though.

Did I say it was? The Fact I listed WINE(Wine is not an emulator) should have tipped off that fact too

It's running a full GNU/Linux OS, it can run native Linux ports of console emulation or run them in a compatibility layer, or even run windows.

How are people this misinformed about the steam deck? It's a fucking Linux computer that just happens to be portable.

>Pcbros paid for a piece of free software
Lmao

They paid for the hardware, and the 64GB is clearly a loss leader.

People who paid for 512GB got mega ripped though.

They got scammed into the hardware; everyone already has a computer.

I don't own a gaming PC lol. It'll be my first and only one. With my PS5 I don't need anything else.

didn't ask

What games should I emulate first? I was thinking PS1 and N64. Maybe do my OOT replay.

Atari

Didn't that system have like no games?

Why emulate when you can play Mario64 decompiled?

Mario 64 is gay. I'd rather play Croc desu.

you literally did though

No.

>emulates all your nintendo games for half the price of a deck
why does this make deckies so fucking mad?

Can it emulate switch tho?

Let's see it emulate PS2, 3DS with x2+ resolution, WiiU, Switch, oh and play native PC titles like Elden Ring.

Yes?

>Let's see it emulate PS2
You can easily find this on youtube
>3DS with x2+ resolution
It does this. You can easily find this on youtube
>Switch
look up
>oh and play native PC titles like Elden Ring.
Is that emulation now?

Did you watch your own video? It runs like shit compared to the deck. The deck has better hardware.

You need the Pro($300) to get the outdated Snapdragon 845 which shits on the chink chipset.

Steam Deck is $400

Why is Yea Forums so tech illiterate?

>It runs like shit compared to the deck
And the deck runs like shit on many games too. Emulators improve, nigger.

The cheapest odin is like 200 bucks. So it's 200 bucks.

Look at Mario Odyssey running in your video. It runs like shit. Now watch the deck running it:

youtu.be/qLYh0_7mj1o

You get what you pay for, the deck is simply better hardware.

So you are willing to pay around 200 dollars to play a handful of switch games?

>It can't even emulate Burnout 3 at full speed
Some value for money you got there, fucking kek

I just like that the steam deck is basically a free switch along with many PC games and classic titles. No other handheld can do this, the Odin comes close but the steam deck will see the most optimization and community support for emulation so it's the better purchase. Don't be a broke boy user.

>naming specific games
lol so the deck can't run PS2 games because Final Fantasy XI and DJ hero don't run?

Good to know.

>emulation thread
has to talk about PC games or he looks like he's happy to spend an extra 200 dollars for switch games
look at those goalposts goooooo

It doesn't really. I have a deck reservation but it looks even less ergonomic than my switch. I'm thinking about putting it up on Ebay desu. I'll probably grab the revision.

It can't even run a fucking decade-old first person shooter hacked to absolute minimum settings, fucking hell

If I'm going to invest in a gaming tablet you can't get better than the deck. If you watch to be cheap then fine, you'll just get the inferior product. Not sweat off my balls dude. Have fun troubleshooting obscure issues on your chick tablet that will never get resolved.

>has to put windows on it to cry about it
If you put windows on the deck, you can't even get SOUND, user.

>has to fall back on crying about chinks, and some hypothetical future where you need to TROUBLESHOOT ANDROID
full retard, to be honest

enjoy emulating GBA games for 2 hours on your groaning, massive hog of a device and patting yourself on the back for it.

It's like driving to work in a tractor, mate

You can't get less ergonomic than the switch lmao. An entire industry of Switch ergonomic grip cases was created because the backs of joycons are fucking flat and uncomfortable. The deck feels much nicer by comparison, even without a dumb case.

Cope. Still not buying your shitty chink tablet. Deck is better.

I don't need to put Windows on Steam Deck to play a decade-old first person shooter and the entire PS2, Gamecube and Wii catalog at full speed, but keep up your buyer's remorse coping I guess

>Wine is not an emulator
it is though?

>cope
>cope

I accept your concessions. Enjoy your decks. But please stop calling it an emulation device, because you make yourselves look retarded.

I'm just looking out for you, guys.

It's Linux. Even their NAMES are recursive and broken.

No you're not. You're shilling your shitty tablet. I know the deck is more expensive but worth it. The community support alone is worth it. I've been burned so many times trying to emulate off meme devices, steam deck is the closest we'll get to official emulation support.

>IT'S NOT AN EMULATION DEVICE BECAUSE... BECAUSE IT JUST ISN'T OK??
Funny how that works, I have plenty of emulators running on it already.
Sounds to me like someone has buyer's remorse over a $300 Android chinkshit handheld.

you wasted money

Well the layout looks obtuse to me for one thing and using the entire tablet to play shooting games with gyro looks again, obtuse compared to a joycon set up. I just want Steam to make some fucking joycons that don't drift and are comfortable, is that so much to ask?

not that user, but I have tons of emulators on my phone, too. doesn't make it an emulation device

>steam
Valve

Well your phone doesn't have a built in controller dumbass. That's part of what makes something an emulation machine and not a machine that can emulate.

>beating their chests over paying 200 bucks more so they can play a handful of switch games
The tendies on this board were right about you guys, I guess. You're just desperate to ape nintendo but don't want to admit it, so you're using the deck as a "beard"

lol, I guess. Okay. Looking forward to you bringing up PC games in an emulation thread to try and deflect. That'll be a laugh.

It doesn't. I already own a switch, why would I want to buy a handheld PC that's like 1/5 as powerful as my desktop?

I want a portable gaming device and the steam deck just happens to be the best one right now. Die mad I guess.

it literally has an emulation layer on the screen for touch controls built into the emulators. Are you retarded?

your thing can't play ps3, xbox 360, wii u, or switch well

So you can play classic Nintendo titles on the go. It's also a switch, so if you don't own a switch you might as well get a deck instead.

Unless you care about the size of a handheld. or the amount of noise a handheld makes. or the weight of a handheld. or the screen quality of a handheld. or the battery life of a handheld?

You know, all the things you need to take into account on a handheld?

Touch controls will never EVER be video games unless it's the DS or Wii-U
>BUT!
Cope. I will NEVER use your faggy on-screen controllers. Ever. Die mad.

Nothing does, user. The emulators of those systems are either shit or require a beefy PC due to being unoptimized. Your steam deck will run a handful of games.

I just want something I can take on the plane or long drives. I'm not some spastic that needs it to fit in my pocket. The steam deck is the best product for me. Die mad.

>this doesn't count until I want it to, and then it does, BUT...

I don't care. Phones are for the Internet, texting, and calling. I don't use it for games so trying to shill phone emulation is a dead end dude. Go shill it to some zoomers.

>I just want something I can take on the plane
Where weight and size are at a premium?
>or long drives.
where battery life is at a premium?

Nigger, what you need is an RG351 device that's compact and has a long battery, not some huge, chugging beasts that lasts 90 minutes.

it doesn't emulate Wii U or Switch worth a dick. should've bought ayn odin

Ive taken laptops on car rides and plane rides dude. The steam deck will be fine. You're trying way too hard. Just give up.

>I don't care
so you lose the argument. You can't answer something so you try to shoo it off by saying it isn't important "to me"

go away now

The deck runs odyssey at 60fps. The odin cant even do 30

Deck
Odin

>works on MY airline
kek, this is desperate.
And I like how this "long car ride" literally became "a car ride that is only as long as my deck battery lasts". That's the problem with hypotheticals, dawg. They are of no use.

Go play games on your phone fucking faggot lmao.

if you wanted to pay 200 dollars extra to play switch games, you are a tendie and could have bought a switch 5 years ago

Dude. You know planes and cars have AC outlets now? Have you not left your house since 1995? I've literally charged my switch on the plane before because it was dying.

>RG351 device that's compact and has a long battery, not some huge, chugging beasts that lasts 90 minutes
Nigger Steam Deck runs the exact same games that RG351 does for 7-8 hours, not 90 minutes. But yeah lets compare Deck running Elden Ring at unlocked TDP and FPS vs RG351 running a SNES game and conclude the battery life is worse.

You've never been in a plane, have you? Do you also not own a car to know it's possible to charge electronics in a car? What kind of absolute retard luddite are you?

>The deck runs odyssey at 60fps. The odin cant even do 30
citation needed
it also cant run botw decently even with hacks. the amount of fully playable games on it is too low to be valuable as a handheld switch emulator. as a handheld pc, maybe. but its barely doing better than the odin at emulation.

I just like that the steam deck is basically a free switch along with many PC games and classic titles. No other handheld can do this, the Odin comes close but the steam deck will see the most optimization and community support for emulation so it's the better purchase. Don't be a broke boy user.

Nope.

>citation needed
Oh okay I won't need to read the rest of your post now that it's based on you not seeing my citation, so I'll go ahead and quote the post with the citation and ignore the rest of what you typed.

the steam deck is just simply better than the competition

Oh okay. Thanks for clearing that up. I can see the Deck actually does have better hardware now. Damn I feel retarded for being cheap and getting a shitty chink tablet haha. Live and let learn I guess.

>lets compare Deck running Elden Ring
but this is an emulation thread?

It's be nice when your emulation machine can also play video games natively.

The Steam Deck is an ascended emulation machine.

If someone sat next to me on a plane and played something with a fan that loud, I would probably have them moved. I make long haul flights and I am not having that shit in my face for 18 hours.

Based deckCHAD literally blowing decklets away with superior hardware and emulation support.
