IMPORTANT: Before starting the emudeck installation, you’ll need to decide if you want to install your games to micro SD card or internal SSD. If you are using a brand new micro SD card, be sure to format it first by selecting ‘Format SD Card’ in the Settings > System menu. If you are already using your sd card for steam games, you do not need to re-format. Just be sure that there is enough free space! Also at 12:51 the correct path is bios > Yuzu > keys

I own a steam deck with emu deck and emu station already installed but I’ll be upgrading to an oled soon. Is it possible to connect my hard drive to the old steam deck and grab everything like the files and roms folders from there and then connect the hard drive to the new steam deck and just drop everything off in the new one?

This is my first crack at emulation. Yes, learning something you're unfamiliar with is stressful, but following this guide and the advice if USE THE EMUDECK CHEAT SHEETS will make this pain free. Thanks so much!!!

Oh wow.. that USB transfer update feature really makes life a lot easier. We didn’t have that back in ye olde days.

I got my deck during the first sale they did. Had a separate SD card for emudeck and got stuff working great but when I decided to delete stuff it left a load of files or links to stuff that weren't there anymore. It got so annoying I ended up resetting the whole system and starting again. I have relatively recently started a batocera build but it doesn't support switch without hassle. I will be going back to Emudeck for a specific few systems as I've just picked up a small 1tb ssd (£30 cheaper than an sd card!!!) and I'll be doing a batocera build on that and use the spare 512gb sd card for an emudeck build for nintendo systems.

Have a steam deck oled. Running into an issue, I've tried plugging several usbc drives directly to the steam deck, but none of them show up, no matter the format, fat32, exfat, mac os, ntfs. UPDATE: I found the fix on reddit for the oled deck, it appears to be software related issue, b/c the solution I found is booting into bios and accessing setup utility > advanced - changing 'USB Dual Role Device' value from 'DRD' to 'XHCI'. Once I saved this change, booted back into steam deck then back into desktop mode. I plugged in the original usbc drive I attempted, and it now shows.

Where are all your roms stored? If you have them stored in dropbox or something, then no, you don't need a USB drive - you can just download from your steamdeck. However, most people have them on a PC, so simply transferring them to the steam deck via USB drive makes more sense. if you don't have any roms, then as I said in the video - go research how to obtain those legally. if you are looking for ways to obtain these illegally, then you are on your own.

You should find that each one is in its own collection. For example if you enable ‘switch - yuzu’ and ‘switch ryujinx’ then you will have two collections, each containing the same games. If you launch the link from the ‘switch - yuzu’ collection then the game will load in yuzu. Likewise, launching the game from the ‘ryujinx’ collection will load the game in ryujinx instead of yuzu. Personally, I only have one collection for each system to avoid duplicates

Yeah I missed it, but not a lot to say on that one really. Retroarch has GBA cores, so the standalone mGBA isn’t required

This is a long shot.. 🙏🏻 I'm using "parallel launcher" (n64 emulator.) My buttons are all messed up I think.. When I try to keybind, the buttons, it says "not bound" when I press a button. The right stick also controls the mouse as well as the right trackpad. Is there a "community layout" that can help? I just need help to make the buttons recognizable for keybindings. I think I need to re-bind for all emulators...

Set the controller profile to gamepad, and then redo the keybindings in the emulator settings

You might want to watch the entire video. I show you how you add the games and emulators to gaming mode at the end of the video. Alternatively, you can launch them through emulationstation.

Yes, you can do a full uninstallation or redo the setup which will override all the settings back to default

Is it better to use emudeck than installing all emulators individually?

You can install them manually, but why do that when emudeck can install them all for you? Including applying the best settings for the steam deck
