I was actually looking into that. I might do that if there's a bit more beefy Steam deck coming over the next year or so. Or maybe I'll grab one of those Lenovo handhelds and throw SteamOS on it. I really wanna try some of these Switch 2 titles, though, so I think I'm gonna have to do my research and learn all the old pirate places again so I can do the ROM thing when the Switch 2 emulation gets figured out.
Switch 2 emulation is a long ways away. Its dirt simple on steam deck, just install emudeck, there's a guide, then download your Roms and dump them in their corresponding folders. And its easy to emulate the n64 version. Deck still has my vote over the competition due to support, repair ability, and hardware overall. Even if it is a few years old at this point.
