It would have made syncing saves between multiple devices really easy, which was what excited me. Being able to play on the Deck then continue on a laptop or desktop from the same save without any further third party syncing methods would have made for a really polished experience for device switching.

Oh, interesting. I didn't realize that was a thing.

Yeah, I currently run the Steam version of retro arch on my pc and my deck and been really enjoying the automatic save syncing. Even my save states show up.

Thanks for the info. This is the first time I've seen any kind of reason for it to be on Steam. I use Dolphin a lot but I don't have a Steamdeck and just use it from my desktop.
