ZillaRUSH Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Steam Deck looks amazing...I see all the recent systems on it emulated. I have not seen it playing INTV/Atari/CV. Anyone have any scoops? A big screen handheld device that plays INTV roms...sign me up!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_me Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 It's a PC, you could dual boot Windows if you want. SteamOS also has a version of wine/proton that runs windows programs. Steam OS is linux based so it's possible to run linux programs too. Have you seen it running MAME? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzip Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 There are Linux emulators for most classic consoles, including INTV, Coleco and all Atari systems. I think the bigger question is how it will handle the keypad for systems that have keypads, will there be enough buttons to map them to?

youxia Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 This thing is huge. Is it really still a handheld? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be able to map all fifteen Intellivision buttons if needed, no different than any modern game controller. Not as nice as an Intellivision controller but it can be done. You also have a virtual keyboard on the touchscreen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZillaRUSH Posted April 8, 2022 Author Share Posted April 8, 2022 I saw MAME on a screen scroll on one video review...but they did not show games...just all the console names. Def can play it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_me Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 You might have seen a port of Retroarch which has a version of Mame as well as an Intellivision emulator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
