Hello all, I was hoping to pick up a machine for 1080p gaming on a TV primarily for playing couch party games on emulators (switch, ps3, wii, etc) and was wondering if the deck would be a good fit? I’ve heard before that there were some problems with docks but not sure if that’s been resolved. Any insight is appreciated

    The ONLY problem I have had with this, is the controller on the system itself defaults as controller 1, so SOME games it takes a little fiddling to use different controllers. But I have done this and it works great.

    I don’t know if you’re talking about in-game fiddling or Steam Input but to clarify for others here: Steam allows to reorder the controllers, so the thing I usually do at the beginning of game party is to move the Deck’s integrated inputs to the last place.

      Yes, some games just let you select which controller is which, some of them you have to manually set it in the Steam Input settings before you launch the game.

        You can reorder the controllers in Steam Input after launching the game. I have had to do this a few times when the deck controller got put first when I was playing alone and wanted to sit on my couch.
