On the Xbox side, Xenia works well as an Xbox 360 emulator; it's not linux native though, but it might work well under wine. I'm not aware of Xbox One (or later) emulators.

On the Nintendo side, I would be surprised if a Nintendo game that couldn't be emulated exists. Even Switch games run very well on day 1 of release.

Yeah, don't take this guy face value. These systems don't emulate excellently at all. It definitely emulates perfectly up to GameCube and PS2 though.

Sorry, I had responded but also missed the "Steam Deck" qualifier. To be clear, the poster you're responding to is absolutely right in general terms, but performance will be an issue for 360 and probably PS3 on the Deck.

I've got some PS2 games to run well, some don't run well at all. Anything below that is great.

So what I've got is: NES, SNES, Genesis and Master System, PS1, PSP and then PS2 as a hit and miss.

I've not tried anything aside from those yet on the Steam Deck.

Edit: noticed I replied to the wrong person, but close enough, I'm not fixing it because I'm about to fall asle...

Would you be able to run AetherSX2 (android PS2 emulator) somehow on the deck to run ps2 games? That app runs a lot of then pretty well on Android phones.

For Deck, you'll likely be using EmuDeck for your emulation setup, which will install PCSX2 for PS2 games.

You can see the other available EmuDeck emulators here: https://emudeck.github.io/frequently-asked-questions/steamos/#what-does-emudeck-install
