Its not that much of a loss given you can still launch Dolphin from steam anyway. It just won't be on the storefront.
Just add it as a non-Steam game, right?
Yup
I constantly say “we live in the future,” and this is more proof.
Steam has done this for like 20 years now
Being able to emulate a Switch on the SteamDeck by simply adding it as a non-Steam game isn’t something we’ve been able to do for 20 years… but OK.
If you're emulating the switch on dolphin, you're not even in the same time line as everyone else
Oh God, you’re right. It’s late - “GameCube / Wii…”
Thanks :)
I use Steam ROM Manager to add my games to Steam and it works wonderfully.
There's also EmuDeck that automates this process too.
Another thing, all the enhancements planned for dolphin on steam will still be hitting the standalone version
Yeah, but you don't get cloud saves or achievements
Can't complain too much though. Dolphin is so good were spoiled.
Not just that, guides, community controller configurations...
