Steam Deck officially supports more than 5,000 games. The unit Valve praised on Twitter.
The developers combined in their calculations projects with the dies are “completely compatible” and “you can play”. In the second case, players need to separately configure some parameters of the game.
OH Hey, Another Big Milestone – We Just Passed 5,000 Tcheded Verified and Playable Titles on Steam Deck! Plenty More to Go (So Many Games on Steam), But Justed to Take a Moment to Celebrate! ? Pic.Twitter.COM/EL7IBWDEO8

Of course, this is a large number, but negligently small compared to the entire Steam library. Judging by Steamdb, there are almost 75 thousand games on the site of only one games, and together with all DLC, music and other types of content, the amount of goods exceeds 123 thousand.
In early March Valve I boasted that the number of supported games on the portable device reached 1,000. The company reached such indicators a week after the start of sales.

Meanwhile I’m the second day.
This is just a great figure!
Just 5 years ago it was a miracle if the game was launched in Wine without problems and squats. And about Nazki one could only dream of – either Fralis with their ports of varying degrees of curvature, or turkey.
If here in six months by five times the number of supported games has increased, then this is very good!
Valve’s great respect because they develop games on Linux.
I am a simple person, I have a Sych (we will omit his characteristics and year of release) and I took from a friend to drive this board, for me it is unrealistic and it is not clear to me what portable gaming is everyone who says. More or less serious games are burning its charge instantly, so either sit near the outlet, or with a shutter. And with all the difframs to the iron, it pulls the games 50/50.
Maybe this is from the category of “incomparable” but EPL out of the same a thin and light tablet with iron as in their laptops and nothing. And here is a gaming green with a bunch of compromises and nuances. As the first pancake is not quite lumpy – quite, but no more. In general, it remains to wait for an update and then can we talk about the portable PC Gaming.
With such requests, this is not to Valve, but to AMD. If only they invent a new chip with less consumption and heat dissipation. The problem is not in Valve, but in x86 architecture.
Well, it is visible, unlike Steammashin, this thing is popular and most likely we will see Steamdek 2. And I really hope that the next "generations" will not be for sorting gaming, t.E compact and with a normal battery.
I doubt that the AMD and the design of the Valv did. This thing is unrealistically huge and heavy. In hand, especially on weight, it will not work for a long time.
So the design is made based on the characteristics of the element base))
Of course, the design was made by Valve (possibly with someone’s help, but not the point). However, each element on the board has its own rules and requirements for placing. Especially among chips. There, up to the degree of the location of the paths and their lengths need to take into account everything. Design and wiring of a board is a very complicated process. You will not fit him in the spirit of “But here we will put a connector for the SSD, but here is percent, and on the side of WiFai”. There you need to calculate all the little things and bindings.
Add to this that you need to add a cooling system and a battery with a sufficient capacity.
And it is also necessary that all this does not cost cosmic money, otherwise the console will be "golden".
CRCH, what is now DECK is clearly not a technical miracle, but also a tap-lap something. This is the console, which, at the moment of technical development, the sizes are quite consistent with the characteristics. If it could be done better, then the situation would not have changed much.
It would not be so huge to make it at the expense of thickening, but that is.
It is easier to make it – it is unlikely that it will turn out even in the following revisions.
P.With. By the way, about the fact that the AMD did the design for Valve – the console design itself is unlikely, but the design of the board probably helped. In any case, Intel, if you order Protzes from them to develop their ironings, distinguish a person to you (and sometimes a whole department) that looks at your scheme, your project design and gives advice to improve the layout of elements.
Surely AMD with Valve also collaborated.
