Valve's popular handheld gaming PC recently passed 14,200 officially rated games, meaning there's never been a better time to own one.

    Because the games that run on the Steam Deck are PC games, no emulation required. It’s a joke.

          No and no. I specifically use the notes function in kbin / mbin to tag odd accounts, just like back then through RES & MassTagger on Reddit.

            Wait what’s his tag?! What’s my tag? “No preheat” and “Eats ketchup”?

      Depending on their Desktop’s architecture it might be required, arm systems do need to utilize CPU emulation to run programs made for x86-64. It’s not usually as involved as emulation of a console platform but it’s emulation no less.

        Steam Deck is an AMD APU that is AMD64/x86_64 architecture.

          They were talking about “emulating a Steamdeck on their desktop” implying that their desktop isn’t a SteamDeck.
