So my steam deck just got dispatched, and I have a micro SD card that I’m hoping to keep games and other things on, I run Ubuntu on a laptop so formatting the card is no issue.
Is there anything useful to preload onto the card before the steam deck gets here, and is there a specific file structure for emudeck ROMs?
Ooh. Good question. Following this thread
for your first question: https://old.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/t9yrjc/how_to_preload_games_on_an_sd_card_for_steamdeck
as for emu deck, you probably need to install it first then set everything up, just to be safe. that’s what’s recommended unfortunately. i would say just download your roms and start organizing now so it’s as easy as possible to import later.
You can download roms on the deck itself if you want.
And you’ll need a bios pack for certain systems.
