His solution: keep games digitally installed, but launch them using floppy disks. Turning floppy disks into physical Steam Deck cartridgesThe idea grew out of a desire to use Zaparoo on the Steam Deck. Zaparoo is software that allows games to be launched using physical media such as NFC tags, QR codes, or USB drives. The plugin allows both Steam and non-Steam games to be launched using physical media such as floppy disks, USB drives, NFC tags, or QR codes. For the initial test, BlackIceLA printed temporary cover art and attached it to several floppy disks, giving them the appearance of physical game cartridges.
