Plus many more games work with minor tweaks or through emulators.

That doesn’t even put into consideration all the games that run perfectly fine, but have no proper input support, or those that require minor tweaks/mods, as mentioned. The number would have been colossally larger as a result.
Still unbelievably impressive though, granted that any of “proper” consoles will never see a game library of this scale
One of the best tech purchases of my life. Also it was a neat intro for Linux gaming :)
I have a Deck and one thing I learned pretty quick is that some devs will mark their game as Steam Deck Verified when it damn well is not. There are some games that struggle to run on the Deck but still have the green check, so I feel claims like this are highly misleading. Also there are some games that have no compatibility information at all yet work great.
Use protondb ratings.
There’s a decky plugin that will show a steamdb badge on game pages (that also works as a shortcut to open the protondb page).
So it’s actually a tester from valve who marks the game as supported or not, and then there are community reports to make sure the rating is accurate.
Love my Steam Deck so much! Just got done pounding out a 9 hour CIV 5 co-op campaign the other day.
The Deck didn’t miss a beat, hosted the game without issue, external monitor running off the dock with my travel keyboard and mouse, flawless fun!
