Hardware The Steam Card Project

[LightyKD]

By now, I'm sure many of you have seen this picture. Considering that many of us with Steam Decks will be using SD cards, we should probably have some sort of database for SD cards, game sizes and boxart. Here is a good idea of what can be accomplished with SD cards

Some Switch Comparisons

Eventually I'll make a list of games and file sizes so that everyone will have a good idea of what size cards they will need per game. Of course, there may be some file size difference between the Windows and Linux versions. I would love to see a lot of you chime in! I'm sure many of you will have questions about card speed, load times, ect. I'll try to provide as much info as I can

EDIT: My Steam Card label gallery can be found here...

That's pretty cool but I'm not sure how many people are going to use the Steam Deck this way. It seems more convenient to just have one large card that you don't remove very often.

Looks nice and all, but not very practical. Also, the Steam Deck uses MicroSD, those are clearly full size SD cards.

Nobody said that you cant use full size SD cards via a card reader and the USB-C port.

Back to the mission at hand. I'm updating my SD card art (mostly because I lost the originals ). Below is a small sample of what I have done.

Here is a set of templates if anyone decides to join my quest

I only ask that if anyone decides to make art for the more...ahem..."pleasurable: games, please use the pink lined template for consistency sake. It's 2am here so I'm going to rest. I'll read any comments in a few hours.
