Netflix thinks it’s still relevant lol
They looked at Stadia and thought:
“How can we make this worse?”
Using your phone as a controller for your TV sounds extremely stupid.
I mean yeah if you’re playing the witcher, but if they are games like Jackbox style then it makes complete sense.
Granted Netflix has burned me too many times so I won’t be resubscribing for this.
I do find it interesting how far ahead of its time the GameCube controller is though. It was almost a precursor for mobile button layout with the large A and other buttons around it in a non-traditional form/layout. That’s what immediately came to mind when seeing the controller layouts.
I’m not a huge fan of cloud gaming but Netflix may be on to something here by having games be added value to a sub rather than a discrete service with a separate sub. Plus from my experience, it’s not like the apps are streamed to your device but are available for download with an active sub.
