oh yeah for sure I don’t think it’s a bad fit for your use case tbh just wanted to share my personal hangups.
i really wanna play diamond/pearl (my OG) but really cba with the two screens smooshed into one on my retroid pocket flip 2 but I didn’t even consider it for steamdeck … that doesn’t sound terrible w how big the screen is
considered the remake/remaster/whatever for the switch and could cope w the much less cool gfx but last I looked into it it didn’t emulate well
none of the DS emulators impress me enough to consider yet mainly bc of the touchscreen lag/no hard stylus
probably wouldn’t be impactful for pokemon but in DS games that heavily use the touchscreen it’s pretty noticeable
As I’ve only tried melonDS so far on a SteamDeck touchscreen with my finger, I can’t say much about responsiveness (not easy to slide on the screen).
But I’ll try and see how to works. Thanks for info.
When it’s as you described, I have at least a more portable pokemon Emulator than my steamdeck.

I play the brilliant diamond on my steamdeck (and pc) with yuzu and synced saves (syncthing) across both devices.
Honestly it’s amazing.
Same for melonDS.
