Just a tip: you can set one of the back buttons on the Deck to flip between the gamepad view and tv view so you don’t have to keep brining up the Steam menu. I think the default key to do this in Cemu is the Tab key. So you can try creating a Steam input template for Cemu games and map one of the back buttons to the Tab key to see if it works.

Hi guys! Thanks a lot for watching my content! As been pointed out in the comments below, the screen swapping (1:15) is made in Cemu through the TAB key which I have mapped to one of my back buttons on Steam Deck now, so that makes it much easier to play Nintendo Land and ZombiU. Thanks a lot for sharing your advices!

Sorry if you mentioned it in the video. But, if anyone's experiencing bad framerate on Wii U games, disable the Steam frame limiter. For me, this got most games (not EVERY game) to run at a locked 60 fps, instead of like, constantly dropping to 55-58~. Thank you for the video, the Deck is great for Wii U emulation. 👍

It amazes me how extremely well Wii U runs on the steam deck. Thanks for the vid!

Something about playing Nintendo Land (a hallmark wii u launch title designed to showcase the capabilities of the gamepad and the console itself) on the steam deck is hilarious to me

Super Mario U and Super Luigi U just bounce straight back out to emulator game selection screen.

MAN I LOVE MY STEAM DECK IT'S THE ULTIMATE GAMING SYSTEM

[amirpourghoureiyan]

Maybe if they integrate chromecast or steam link, they could pair up the deck wirelessly with TVs to have the proper Wii U setup (two screens). Would be a nice addition to get around the annoying screen swapping.

Would have been nice to see a guide to game settings or how to set up CEMU

[itzdcx]

I never had the chance to play the WIIU other than playing Smash Bros and Mario Kart I really try other games on my SteamDeck THIS IS AWESOME

[itzdcx]

the only things I hate about the Stean deck is the Huge bezels it's shouldn't be acceptable in 2022 like I wished they went with an OLED screen
Also I don't like the placement of the Sticks i always reach for the touch pads

[Imora]

i prefer running theses games on real hardware since i have most of them.. but its still impressive how theses run surprisingly well!

[jonathandelapaz]

I'm playing Windwaker on steamdeck, thru Emulation Station, handheld, while laying in bed. Do you have a video on how to set up the controls on it so I can easily switch to the gamepad to assign the weapons?

[cj]

Do you know if you can play the Nintendo multiplayer on here?

[Mad-Arawak]

Hi guys any help would be appreciated i'm having issue starting Mario Kart 8, New Super Mario Bros & Splatoon. New Super Mario Load but on the welcome screen it says press A. I press A and the game closes.

[johnfrankster]

Sound stutters in smash are kind of bad, most run well though.

[bobowon]

recently just got this working. Only issue i have is i can't find a way to get cemu the update for breath of the wild.

[jackli]

Is there any way to make it full screen? I see two black bars in the top and bottom.

[JustCliff]

On Nintendo Land, I’m getting a green screen when setting up the gyro (after you touch the box in the beginning).

[SamDoots]

How do you get the wii u menu on the steam deck
