- Today we are looking at Batocera on the Steam Deck if it is any good and if it makes sense installing it compared to something like EmuDeck so let's get into it :-)

Batocera or EmuDeck both are great 👌🤘
I don't like having Retroarch under SteamOS because (a) the core selection is limited and (b) having a game browser inside a game browser kills the convenience aspect. So I do emulate PS1/PS2/PS3/etc under EmuDeck but the older stuff gets put on a card with Batocera.
Seems like best of both worlds
for standard features, yes it is the same. now if you add pads because you want to play at 2, 3 or even 8 players on ps2 pes, there are autoconfigured on batocera, if you want to view games manuals on batocera it is a simple click. you want to play lightguns with youre sinden gun or your wiimote, it works out of the box on batocera ; you want to take your card and continue the game on an other computer or play snes via the network ? want to play age of king or fpinball ? if you just compare systems by checking if you can start mario bros on both systems, yes, there are all the same 😂
Im an average gamer so I don't really take advantage of any of those but I also didnt start mario bros. Good to know that it can do it out of box though
Wow, the wiimote as light guns feature just sold me on this!
Batocera freezes during load screen, shows joystick with version under it, plays music while tryna load then freezes and screen goes black,.. Any ideas on how to fix ???
It absolutely is. I've had issues getting emulation working properly on emudeck/retrodeck, not to mention the lack of the carbon theme on the version of emulationstation that comes with it. All your emulators and controls are already configured, it's just much easier to get into a game. It also boots faster than steamOS, even off the sd card. I would have preferred to stay in steamOS, but batocera is just a better experience if you only need emulation.
Did you buy a preconfig card?
Cant figure out how use steam deck shortcuts on emudeck. Can i use shortcuts on batocera? I mean those back buttons to open emulation menu etc?
You gotta select button that acts as a hotkey then just press desired key combination
Batocera supports also natively sinden lightgun too.
Does EmuDeck support lightgun?
@aaaaaaaaaaron92 there is the Linux application that's in beta
Did you buy a special build of that?
Batocera is better than Emudeck because it plays Sega Model 2 and Super Model 3. Emudeck doesn't play those emulators with going through a miniture headache.
Do model 2 Sega Rally and Top Skater arcades work on Steam deck with Batocera?
couldn't you point emudeck at the roms on the Batocera SD card?
Can you show us the games library on this card? Thanks
Check the link they re all listed in there
JESUS!!! Your Hands Are Huge!! How have I never noticed or is it because I'm really tired or is it because everyone else that I have seen with there hands on the Steam Deck are really small well I'm going to have some crackers and go to sleep night night
Crackers before sleep?
Not as huge as Michael Jordan's hands🙃🤘
@@sonofahandheld hehehe L0L!!!
I struggle with emulation for some reason… maybe it’s because there are so many roms and bios’s out there that finding a set that works along with a front end that’s not over complicated requires time and patience.
I loaded Emudeck on the Deck but I didn’t like the continual updating or the fact it uses up hard drive space (sure it can run from an sd card but you need to do that off the bat).
Batocera appealed to me because you can have it all on an sd card but I can’t get it to update… yes it downloads the latest but “reboot” doesn’t work.. for me.. also you need to transfer roms over your WiFi network which isn’t so convenient when away from your home network.
Both methods suffer the same hassle in setting up roms and emulators.. some are drag and drop but things like Switch require a lot of luck ( getting the right files) and knowledge which isn’t easy to come by given the legalities of playing your Nintendo “back ups”.
Im using emudeck off sd card but yea if you're first time user it's quite a battle with sth like switch emu
You can moves roms directly to batocera with a thumb drive assuming you have a dock/hub/usbc adapter for your deck. Im moving 20gb of ps2 roms to mine with a dock right now.
Seems like just buying a usbc thumb drive or A to C adapter would fixx that problem for you.
For some reason I cannot map the hotkey to my Bluetooth controller. It is really really bugging me. So when I'm docked to my TV I cannot save or change games without getting up and touching the steam deck. How do I solve this? Thanks.
Not sure...maybe try different controller
Hey, what game is in 0:57 ?
300 march to glory psp
It is awesome! My only issue is when I play gamecube, the character constantly spins. Everything points to right stick drift but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to adjust the dead zone. Anyone know how?
I'm having this exact problem, did you ever solve it? Thanks.
@@bomulus1 Never did unfortunately.
You can have the steamdeck autoboot to the Batocera card
I was wondering this.
How?
Go into the BIOS and set the SD card first in the boot order.
Either you found a way to shrink the steam deck or your hands are big as fuck
I have Steam Deck Lite 😏
how to get to batocera main menu from steam deck in ps2?
map the hotkey to some key ( I put it to steam button) and then press hotkey and start wiki.batocera.org/basic_commands
@@sonofahandheld tnx how will i run tekken tag tournament on mame and some mame roms are not running in mame
@@sonofahandheld and do u know how to add cheats in batocera mame.
Zealous chuck?
Correct
Ali Express companies throw in a bunch of duplicate games to inflate the game count.
Emudeck is better .Batocera dont work on dock
Im using my deck in hands only but very good point, didn't know that👍
it works on dock.
@@nicolas.adenis-lamarre
How never got signal when I boot batocera
I've a dock with a rom loaded 2Td HDD attached with batocera and it works just fine.
Emudeck with emulationstation already beaten batocera
Channel Violation!!@!!!@
Where?
It's a damn mess, there's like layers and layers of emulators on top of emulators...
Emudeck? Or batocera
@@deality I can't remember I was trying to get WiiU running or something. I think the moral of the story is, start from scratch and do 1 game at a time, instead of downloading a dump of rubbish that you have to configure everything anyway.
