This is the best summary I could come up with:
The important thing to remember is that Deck Verified only includes what Valve have put through testing.
There's more supported games than any one person can play, which is a pretty good place to be for a platform overall.
You can see the proper numbers on SteamDB, since that includes delisted games you can still play if you own them (which Valve still verify).
Various developers still have not enabled support via Easy Anti-Cheat and BattlEye including Rust, PUBG, Rainbow Six: Siege, Destiny 2 and more.
Additionally, while we don't get sales numbers from Valve on anything, we can see overall the Steam Deck has been selling well.
Looking at the global top sellers, the Steam Deck constantly ranks quite high.
