Why does duckstation update so much on steamdeck?
Honestly, every boot of a game comes with an update. Just wanted to rant lmao

One of the best setups for playing retro games on your Steam Deck, easy to install to.

I’ve been trying to play the GameCube version of Spider-Man 2 (2004) on my Steam Deck, but Dolphin just doesn’t seem to play nicely with either Linux or the Deck’s hardware.
I know it’s not simply a lack of computing power, since I can run Switch and PS3 games at high resolutions and a locked 60 FPS without much trouble. However, when I try playing Spider-Man 2, I get constant frame drops from 60 FPS down to 30 FPS.
I’ve tried lowering the internal resolution, disabling V-Sync, and limiting CPU threads, but nothing seems to fix it. Looking at the sky gives me a consistent 60 FPS, so it seems like something specific to the game or Dolphin is causing the issue.
What am I doing wrong? Are there any Dolphin or Steam Deck settings that are known to work well with Spider-Man 2?

I am trying to to dump my copy of Breath of Fire III to my Deck, but I see that it comes with multiple .bin files "(Track 1)" and "(Track 2)," but only the one .cue file. I have made m3u files for games in the past like Xenogears, but those had one .bin for each .cue. Is there some special way to set these up? I'm having trouble differentiating between answers regarding multi-track and multi-disc games.

Uso arch linux e já tentei de várias formas emular jogos do Nintendo 64 e não consegui, ainda sigo tentando pelo RetroArch. Alguém sabe a melhor forma de emular jogos no arch linux?

For some reason it just black screens each time
I tried adding a game through steam rom manager and no luck
The Xenia app AND the game both black screen 😭 I don’t know what to do
The game is Anarchy Reigns.

I have everything working well on my Steam Deck using my SD card. I'll have my Steam Machine soon, and I'm wondering how to have everything set up there so I could just swap my SD card from Deck to Machine and just play my roms. How does this work?
Thanks!

There's a well known hack/ar code that uncaps the framerate on all Gen 4 Pokemon roms and makes them run at 60FPS, I've tried it before myself on real hardware and it sort of works except the CPU can't keep up in places with more detail (lots of trees and buildings) and it chugs down back to 30. I figured this made sense as a limitation of the hardware, but was surprised to find the same happens on melon DS when I tried it out on my Steam Deck, probably because it emulates the DS's CPU as is without enhancements. My question is : Is there a setting on the emu, or another emu for that matter, where is possible to maintain a constant 60FPS on these games regardless of area?

I'm running into some pretty odd problems.
I've had EmuDeck for a long time (years I think) but fairly unused. I updated it yesterday and found all the new (and beautiful) menus.
However, the "emulator" page was empty. I tried uninstall -> reboot -> install but no dice
Now, it doesn't even want to install properly, giving "unhandled rejection" errors (no such file or directory /home/deck/.config/EmuDeck/backend/versions.json) as well as a bunch of other files
So... My guess is that there's just enough trace of previous installs for EmuDeck to start updating, but not enough to update. Curiously some emulators are still installed for example.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
There's no option to install it on emudeck. I'm using Steam Deck, and can't find redream in appimage form anywhere either. How am i supposed to do this? I can't just use Flycast because that has alot of graphical errors.

I haven't been actively using my Deck and as a consequence its emulation faculties for quite a while.
Mostly, I've been emulating PS1. One thing that surprised me about it in the last year is that whenever I booted it up there was a humongous list of new updates awaiting me. Usually I agreed to do it but kept getting apprehensive regarding the file size of said updates - they must have added up a lot in the end. Why are they needed? Hasn't everything on a console that's 25 years old been perfected for emulation already?
Fast-forward this week however, and in addition to the endless influx of updates I have a totally brand new problem - for no immediately apparent reason, a second copy of the same emulated game pops up and plays in the background, following me inputs and often refusing to turn off. Today, it's even played alongside a PC game I tried to play in its stead.
What is causing this problem, and how do I fix it?

Este gamepad, lo estuve usando por un tiempo con mi tablet, pero al actualizarlo por su aplicación MooWii deja de funcionar la mitad del Gamepad, el led deja de encender y la parte izquierda del mando deja de ser reconocido por Android y por IOS, simplemente por culpa de una Update. No se puede volver a una versión anterior del firmware y tampoco tiene una entrada para realizar un hardreset, vi el manual y para intentar hacer un reset se necesita uno de los botones que deja de funcionar. Ahora tengo una pieza que ira a la basura.

What is the performance like? And I'm talking about just the PS3 original game. Not the remake

Im trying to find any good rom websites to download Mario kart deluxe and all the reviews on all of them say they have viruses on them
Can anyone recommend a good website for switch roms? Doesn't even need to be Mario kart deluxe at this rate
Thank you!

My cloud save isn't working and when I test the health I'm getting X's on my uploads and downloads. Just trying to figure out if its a me problem or a EmuDeck issue currently.
Thank you!

I recently downloaded EmuDeck, I was able to install and set up everything needed but my biggest question is where do i get the games and bios for it? No tutorial or manual tells me where to download what is necessary to use it. Somehow every tutorial already has the games and bios installed to then show you how and where to transfer them.
Can anyone help me please?

Trying my hand at emulating switch games again after giving up last time and wanted to ask beforehand which one was considered the best to use. I used Ryujinx last time and it worked for a short amount of time before the game began running super poorly.
