Valve did allow RetroArch on their store, it's just Dolphin which got shot down. IIRC the distinction was that Dolphin flew close to the sun by bundling decryption keys, which gave room for Nintendo's lawyers to argue that it violated the DMCA, and Valve didn't want to die on that hill for the sake of putting a free emulator on their store.
- scarface_74 3y agoValve asked Nintendo in advance about allowing the Yuzu emulator on the store. Nintendo said no and Valve didn’t put up a fight. I heard about it on a recent Decoder podcast. But this is the first reference I saw on the web. https://kotaku.com/yuzu-nintendo-switch-emulator-steam-deck-dock-valve-1849632836 https://kotaku.com/yuzu-nintendo-switch-emulator-steam-deck-...
