Slight tinkering and slight annoyances. Like some text is hard to read or unreadable, button/key prompts are wrong. Frame limiting being wonky, sound glitches. But all in all still amazing to be able to play your stuff on the go.

Yup. I've just been purchasing games without the Verified tag now because I'll just be like: "yeah that seems like it'd work and it typically does".

I made the mistake of installing Stardew Valley on it for 1.6. Oof, I'm playing it everywhere. Very bad when you can't handle your addictions well.

Some aren’t even that egregious. A game having a launcher, or requiring you to manually bring up the keyboard, for example, keeps it from being verified.

So Monster Hunter Rise, a game that works flawlessly, launched as “playable” because it required you to manually evoke the keyboard when typing your name in character creation.
