As someone who almost entirely emulates their games with the occasional pirated PC game, I’ve now spent about $150 on Steam games in the first month I’ve had my Deck. I can only imagine the bank they’re making off of people who are already used to buying their games. I’m officially ensnared. I haven’t been this excited about gaming since the original Xbox came out 21 years ago.
Not sure if it’s been mentioned here already, but RetroArch is a thing on Steam Deck too for all (most) of your emulation needs.
