Though both have a shit ton of shovelware garbage

Tried to get steredenn working on Steam deck in February. Failed miserably (controls didn't work).

Works on switch (within it's limitations of course).

Take that πŸ˜‚

Btw steredenn is even Linux natively, that's what made me even more angry.

Edit: What's with the downvotes? I mean it's fine but - if I did something wrong or it works since date x, tell me!

That's basically the issue... especially older Linux ports run worse than the Windows version. I hope Valve will eventually consider setting Proton as the default for some games even when they are native, as their ports are usually abandoned and outdated.

I tried everything the ui is able to to, proton and all, to no avail.

Try switching it to launch the windows version through Proton instead of the Linux version. Loads of games work better that way I’ve found, since a lot of the Linux versions don’t get the same level of support.

It also works with the major Switch emulators, although maybe you meant that.

Haha, nice to know but no 😁.

I don’t own anything Nintendo but I thought there would only be like 200 games.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

If you exclude shovel-ware games it's likely around that amount, maybe a bit more. There's a lot of shovelware on the Switch (usually paid ports of free mobile games that would've been driven by ads normally).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

I bet the amount of games that are what most would consider fully compatible is much higher than the amount of green checkmark games (valve just doesn't have time to check every single game out there).

What I would consider falling in that category is full Xinput controller support, no keybinding necessary, and Fully functional under proton. Yes you can get other games working but that's the optimal conditions for normies to play the games without fiddling.
