    When enough of you keep asking me for the SAME THING I try to listen...so here we go; Steam Deck coverage! But of course this is a retro gaming channel so it's not like we are going to talk about modern PC Gaming on the Steam Deck...we are going to talk about retro emulation...more specifically GameCube emulation!

    I asked, you answered...and I try to listen :) Of all the requests for new content on the channel one of the most frequently asked for videos is a series on the Steam Deck; Valve's new Nintendo Switch competitor that could
    On today's Steam Deck video I will go over how to get Nintendo Wii games running on your Steam Deck via Dolphin Emulation. Note: This is for Wii only and I will dis a GameCube version earlier as while both video game consoles use the same emulator...the setup process varies in many ways! Dolphin is an amazing emulator and the Steam Deck is an amazing piece of hardware...but there are some extra steps here! Changing thread count via PowerTools for EmuDeck 2, dealing with aspect ratios, etc etc.
    But if you follow the process you will get your Nintendo Wii emulation up and running on the Steam Deck in no time!
    (Note: You can also download the stand alone Dolphin emulator and NOT go through Emu Deck 2 if you really don't want to)
    Again I recommend getting a Dock for your Steam Deck as the process is MUCH easier that way!
    Here is the GameCube Tutorial if you need it : • GameCube on Steam Deck...
    There are a ton of Nintendo Wii hidden gems to discover though!
    But the Steam Deck is proving to be an amazing retrogaming handheld video game emulation machine and I love it!
