Setting up RetroArch on the Steam Deck is pretty straightforward once you get the hang of it. First, you'll need to install RetroArch. You can do this by using the Discover software center available in desktop mode on the Steam Deck. Simply search for RetroArch, install it, and boom - you're halfway there! After installation, launch RetroArch, and you might want to download some cores (which are essentially emulators for different platforms) through RetroArch's online updater. Finally, add your game files to the RetroArch's directory, and you're all set to enjoy your retro games!
Honestly, you're better off keeping your Steam Deck for Steam games. Retro gaming is cool and all, but the Deck shines with the latest titles. Just my two cents.
