    I’m concerned about torquing the controllera. That’s a pretty long lever with a very short attachment to the screen. It just looks flimsy.

    It is crazy to me that this thing is really going to exist. Maybe I am in the minority but streaming games just sucks. Sure you can get by but there is no way I’m ever going to throw money at something that will only stream games and nothing more. One day I am sure, just not anytime soon.

    Also if this thing does cost around $300 it is crazy to me that anyone would want this when you could just buy a switch for the same price.

      I get what you’re saying for cloud streaming, but streaming over 5ghz in my house is near flawless. My consoles and PC are all on Ethernet. I stream my PS5 to my steam deck and my upstairs gaming PC to my Nvidia shield and my steam deck, and any latency is negligible. Granted for ranked online play or fighting games maybe it makes a difference for some people, but I don’t really play those or notice anything really.

      I do agree that $300 is steep for this. I think it needs to be sub $200 to have a chance. Ideally it can have enough oomph to even play some PS classics, Vita, and PSP games locally.

      The PS elite controller is $200, so it may be closer to $300, which I think is a big mistake. Hell, a base steam deck is $400 and you can stream your PS5 and play games locally with it.

      For me, the Android part matters less than how locked down the distro is. I love PlayStation’s controllers so it might be worth it as a streaming-only PS5 accessory. But there’s no way I’d spend $300 on a heavily restricted, Sony-store-only Android that does nothing but stream Sony-distributed software.

      Basically, if it’s just a PlayStation WiiU, that needs to be very cheap. Like, impulse buy cheap.
