This brings the Wii U/3DS eShop themes to the Steam Deck. This is made for purely preservation.
I might also add other eShop themes as well once I'm done with this, and if we get any new ones when the new Nintendo console launches. For now, this is what I'll be doing lol
Recently, the policy was just changed so that anything pertaining to video games/consoles/ect are not allowed on AudioLoader. Which means, if you want to use these themes/sounds on your handheld device, you'll have to manually install them yourself, as I am no longer allowed to submit them to AudioLoader. With that in mind, I'll keep up my repositories, because I don't want to throw away work that I've already done, and a DMCA is honestly the least of my worries.
Great question! And I'm here with an answer!
- Turn on your Steam Deck and go to Desktop Mode
- Go to your web browser of choice and download the zip file of this repository (or the repository you're looking at)
- Unzip the file somewhere where you'll remember where it is, then go to that directory.
- Now, the easiest way to go about doing this is to keep two tabs open. You can do this easily by putting your mouse over a folder directory (Home, for example), pressing right trigger, and then clicking the "Open in New Tab" button to do so. Do that.
- In this new tab, go to /home/deck/homebrew/sounds. It should look like this.
- Now, go back to your other tab, and drag and drop the folder of the theme you want to the other tab.
- You've now installed the theme. Go back to Gaming Mode, and find your theme in the Audio Loader tab, and it'll be there!
