Just because they haven’t been checked yet doesn’t mean they won’t run. About 75% of the games that were tested were compatible with the Steam Deck. Also, all emulators work on Linux too and sometimes even better than on Windows. The number of games that are available to you on Linux is simply massive.
This seems a little exaggerated. For example, over 10k games are Steam Deck playable/verified.
Of the 70k games available on Steam …
That is 14%.
Better than before, but still a long way.
So not an exaggeration at all.
