Retro Steam Deck mod launches games using floppy disks (www.club386.com)

Strictly speaking this is probably more like retro-adjacent rather than truly retro gaming (though you could make floppies only for the retro games you play on your Steam Deck I guess), but a modder set up a system that uses Decky Links to launch Steam Deck games via floppy disks, QR codes, and NFC cards, simulating the nostalgia of physical media. I love the ka-chunk sound of a floppy being seated.

You're telling me a 3.5" floppy can't hold Cyberpunk 2077?
