  • The emulation capabilities of the Steam Deck continue to impress me, and it inspires me to use it in more was than I've ever expected. These are my experiences powering a home arcade with a Raspberry Pi, a Steam Deck and an Aya Neo NEXT (Windows machine).

      More like swiss army knife of modern gaming, it's not really a good traveling console or just to play from your bed. It's kinda heavy and the battery doesn't last as much with big demanding games.

    14:03 Just so you know Bob, Valve actually happens to be working on porting the steam deck UI to the desktop steam client, it’s supposed to eventually replace Big Picture mode. I’ve been playing around with it in the steam beta branch and it’s been awesome. It takes a little finagling with windows to access in it’s current state though. I’m excited to see it integrated into the stable branch eventually!

Not gonna speak on his behalf but I recall him going over a few nitpicks with using a steam deck for the cabinet, and HoloISO would just reproduce those issues given it’s basically just telling him to install Linux.
      The HoloISO project is badass though, I’m actually planning on building a HoloISO gaming machine to sit alongside my windows editing one. Really stoked to do that some day.

So now ima have it outward and open on a rotating mount.

    As someone who only experienced the feel and witnessed a true old school arcade machine. I got to say that is a pretty solid build for an arcade machine aside the fact it's all run by a modern brain for emulation. There is one arcade style I don't see often, that being the Cocktail arcade table. Now I know it's not really the most convenient version of arcade machines but it certainly is a unique one. I know some fold up and you can get one somewhere online but I've yet to see an ultimate emulation done on one like what you've done with your machine. it'd be kind of cool to have one as a nice decoration you can play and of course it would be liquid proof & Food proof.

I've heard that wireless HDMI can actually be really good latency wise and that, paired with a generic usb wireless keyboard/mouse combo could make configuring stuff a breeze and stop you from needing to dock a physical device to use it. It would just mean plugging the receiver in and switching displays
