Jesus what an amazing guide. Never done any emulation stuff with old games before and now I've got a Rog Ally I fancied giving it a go and this video was easy to follow. Cheers.

bro I can't thank you enough, I've been trying to emulate gba on my new Rog ally x and I couldn't figure out why the built in controller wasn't registering in MGBA. Turns out I needed to set control mode to gamepad in the control centre. Had no idea and out of sheer luck your 2 second clip helped me haha

Great video, super helpful! One tip - if you have a PC or laptop with a MicroSD card reader, I personally found managing the files there instead of on the smaller screen of the Ally X much easier.

Great video. I always thought I could launch from emudeck...was supposed to be emulation station lol

[@PeteTalksTech]

Thanks Andy! Yes it does get very confusing and that’s why I wanted to clarify in the vid that EmuDeck is the ‘backend’ in setting it all up, and Emulation Station is the ‘front end’ we use to launch our games, happy retro gaming! 🤩

[@Visionary4787]

[@Dr.D00p]

I still say the Steam Decks 16:10 aspect ratio OLED screen is the far superior choice for Emulation of systems upto the Gamecube/PS2/Wii & WiiU era. The games scale far better on that ratio than they do on a 16:9 screen. System designed mostly for 4:3 ratio televisions will give far nicer results when using Emulator scaling options.

[@PeteTalksTech]

I LOVE the 16:10 SD OLED screen for old school emulation like snes! 🤩

[@TheMasterChiefArchives]

Retroarch is somewhat nerfed if you use emudeck/emulationstation, the glslang shaders don’t work and you can’t save certain core or global options. If you don’t care about that stuff then yeah definitely use emudeck, but if you like to tinker with your game settings then I definitely recommend you install retroarch separately and run it independently from emudeck/emulationstation

im having issues with my controls when playing. whenever i press a it does a screenshot and whenever i press b it pauses the game how do i fix this? Edit: nevermind i figured it out by resetting the configs on emudeck

It won’t - make sure when we’ve placed our roms to open with the front end called Emulation Station as shown at the end of the vid - that’s how we play all our games, as EmuDeck is the backend just to set up Emulation Station 👍

Because i wanted to have 2 separate SD cards One for triple A games that have more gbs And the other one for the retro emulation so that i can have SOOO MUCH GAMES XD So Can i do it? Can i eject the SD card and put the SD card with the AAA games ? And if i put back the SD card with retro games, will it work? And will work the AAA games that are installed on the SD card? Just asking if i should buy the other SD card because i dont want to spend so much money on 1 tb sd card xD I already asked on reddit but no one responded to me

Hi, thanks for the amazing video guide. However I did encounter a problem when trying to launch Emulation Station DE from my Armory Crate. All games that I try just don't seem to respond to any of my Ally buttons. Yes, it was on gamepad mode. After some reading I think we need to launch everything from steam so the emulators use steam input. Is this not your case? Were you able to play the games fine when launching the ES-DE from Armory Crate? Thank you.

Glad you enjoyed the Guide Coffee! Yes all my buttons seemed fine after doing all the steps incl. Parsing and Saving the games in Steam Rom Manager… Hope you manage to fix!

[@MrCoffee0996]

@PeteTalksTech hi there! Thanks for replying. I ended up setting up my emulators manually, since I don't have that many I want to play. I just use the ES-DE front-end for all emulators and launch them from Armory Crate with my own personal hotkeys and power profile. Quite a hassle setting it up, since I need to check the command prompts and everything, but it's all good now. My only gripe is that I have to manually add Yuzu configs on ES-DE, but there's a lot of them online so I just copy paste.

I followed all your steps but Dolphin is not recognizing my gamepad. The only button that works is the start button. I'm launching games through ES. ES recognizes the gamepad, but Dolphin does not, any ideas how to solve it?

Perhaps in Windows go to All Apps, click on the EmuDeck folder, and go into Dolphin directly, and on the top in settings there should be an option to configure gamepad.. My Wii and GameCube games work directly launching within EmuDeck so there shouldn’t be any issues, so make sure the Control Mode in Command Center is set to Gamepad and not Desktop or Auto 👍
