RetroDECK got a lot bigger and better for emulation on Steam Deck
RetroDECK is just one of the ways you can set up your Steam Deck for emulation and their team recently put up a rather great sounding upgrade in v0.7.0b.
This is such a convenient tool for emulation, the global hotkeys and controller scheme for all emulators is a really cool idea
EmuDeck vs RetroDeck pros and cons ?
EmuDeck is more complete, and is easier to setup especially for recent console (e.g. Switch). However it's a script that installs a bunch of flatpaks and puts files all over your device.
RetroDeck is a self-contained unique application so it's cleaner, but last time I checked it was a bit more difficult to get Yuzu to work.
Also, EmuDeck creates individual Steam games for each of your game while RetroDeck is a launcher (EmulationStation) for all your retro game. Whether it's a pro for one or the other is up to personal taste.
@erwan @warmaster which should people choose?
I love RetroDeck, It's about as close as you can get to a turn key solution.
Switch emulation needs work but otherwise it does everything I want.
