    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.

      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

        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.

        Btw regarding responsiveness: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Kt3GezkZeR4 (Timestamp: 16:14) for a demo at how responsive the emulator is on the ayn thor.
