    Do you think any of such games would be in the list?

    I’d imagine only a smaller subset of people even set up their Steam Deck for third party games.

      I dunno, I feel like the Steam Deck’s core audience is “people who liked the Switch’s form factor but also like mods and third-party launchers.”

        I think that’s what we see and may be misattributing of a small active subset that is very technical and invested.

        It’s on the steam store. I’m sure many people buy and play, and don’t ever read or write on a community like this. They’re “invisible” here, but impact if not dominate the playtime ranking.

            • under Home -> Power, select “Desktop Mode.”
            • Open Steam in desktop mode, and go to your Library.
            • Select a game, and go to Properties -> Local Files.
            • a file browser should open and show the game files just like you’d see on PC.

      Emulation Station might, since a lot of people use it as a frontend for their emulators. Since ES runs in a separate window while you play, all the time spent playing emulated games would all add to ES’s total.
