I LOVE my Steam Deck, but I couldn't help but wonder how it would look on a CRT TV. Between Emudeck for emulating old systems and the new wave of modern-retro stylized games, could this be the ultimate CRT gaming setup?
I still game like it's 1998 - even with modern games. 4:3 gaming just scratches a particular itch that nothing else does, and the reduced input latency is unmatched. The improved motion clarity, the zero added input latency - CRTs just beat out LCDs in nearly every way. Don't just read this, let me show you.
