There is ChimeraOS for gaming. You can install most modern distros and the gamepad will still work like a gamepad. Navigating most Desktop Enviroments will be problematic without a keyboard and mouse though.

  At least the mouse is emulated by default in the gamepad’s “lizard mode”. And when you run Steam you get the same functionality as on the Deck.
