You can set one of the trackpads to ‘as mouse’, which lets you use the touchscreen without actually touching the screen. You could also do it with one of the analogue sticks as well, but the trackpads are more precise.
If you’re open to using the touchscreen, though, you could just buy a cheap capacitive touch stylus and use it exactly as you would on a real DS.
If you’re looking for illegal improvements, then you could always try downloading cracked versions of Denuvo-infested games, which should run better since they don’t have malware that constantly checks if you bought the game.
Clearly you’ve never used an Xbox 360 controller.
The Deck’s D-pad isn’t great, but it’s a whole lot better than the Switch Pro Controller’s D-pad, and it’s certainly far from being “one of the worst D-pads”.
It is by far the best PC you can buy in terms of value for money, especially since the price drop. You can’t get anything else thar’s anywhere close to the Deck’s capabilities for that price.
You can still change it back.
Would this work to get 90fps on the OLED model? I don’t have one, just curious.
Dolphin is just a mess on the Deck. I was having an issue where it would get stuck in the ‘exiting game’ state every single time I closed it, so I updated Dolphin and it corrupted all of my saves. And it didn’t even fix the problem.
