I ran into too many compatibility problems trying to run old games to make the effort of keeping them around and trying to find some way to load the media worth it. Also, floppy disks don’t age well.

I usually end up purchasing the game again on gog. They’re pretty inexpensive and I have a better chance of getting something that will be compatible with my current setup. I haven’t tried running any gog games on my steam deck yet, though.
