ArmadaOS here we go!
Hi! After working with the ArmadaOS devs EmuDeck EA now works on Armada without jumping through hoops or installing dependencies. Just execute the .desktop icon and you are good to go. Make sure you have all the ArmadaOS updates installed before!
Everything should work the same as the regular EmuDeck does for Linux/SteamOS except that PCSX2 has no ARM build and they don't plan to have them ( I asked ), so we use ARMSX2 instead, since it's a fork of PCSX2 ,memory cards should work fine between them, so ARMSX2 works with CloudSync too, using PCSX2 for PS2 emulation in x86 systems and ARMSX2 in arm devices.
PS: I'm also working on updates for the EmuDecky and RetroLibrary plugins but those will come later down the line.
PS2: Regarding EmuDeck Android, I'm waiting on the RetroArch devs to merge a feature I sent them, when that's done I'll be able to launch the next update!
If you have issues installing EmuDeck with Armada or anything else please reach out on the Discord support channels!

HELLO, i WANTED TO KNOW WHERE CAN I DOWNLOADE THE ARMADA VERSION OF THIS? THANK YOU
Recently joined to be able to get EmuDeck for Android and I’m stuck with a failed bios folder check for PS2 emulation. Not sure how to get past of trouble shoot this. Edit - got it figured out. I had bad files.
Is this only for the EA version thus far? Or I install the stable version on armada?
EA, same as the Steam Frame :)
Wow! I am new to Armada, so i should install steamOS version on Armada?
yep
Btw I want to ask you which do you recommend for android handheld that I use for emulation mainly. Staying in android or switch to ArmadaOS
I think performance is still better on the Android side of things but tbh I haven't tested performance in a while
I literally was wondering yesterday if Emudeck supports ARM linux 😂 thanks dragoonDorise
yeah, I heard your thoughts!
