I’ve been on the fence for a while thinking about getting myself a steam deck. I got a great gaming computer and I’m wondering if it can possible accompany it in some way, or is it just the excitement of getting new tech kicking in.

What do you do with your steam deck? What makes you glad that you got it?

I’m keen to get into emulation, but always wonder where folks find ROMs.

Google “R ROMs Megathread” and ignore the Reddit results.
