You could always install Waydroid TV and get the apps from Aurora Store or Google Play for full resolution
Oh, that’s a great idea. It never occurred to me.
Here's a repo to get you started, though you'll need to either do some workaround in SteamOS to get it to stick since it is immutable (Steam Deck/Machine community has a couple ways of doing it), or use a regular game optimized distro like CachyOS: https://github.com/WayDroid-ATV/waydroid-androidtv-builds
Make Android TV shortcuts for apps that don't normally work on Android, but have gamepad support: https://atvlauncher.trekgonewild.de/
You could also just do regular Waydroid, but some apps won't give you the TV optimized version with gamepad/remote support, then you need to use something like this or Mantis: https://github.com/keymapperorg/KeyMapper
