Called it ages ago. This thing seems destined to fail - their entire market is a niche within a niche.

      Steam link is really good if the server computer is connected to ethernet and your router is beefy enough. I was able to play cyberpunk on a macbook air through wifi no problem. Lag was unnoticable. Of course for this to work your ping needs to be around 25ms or lower, anything higher than this and your brain will start to notice the lag. That being said, this is still a useless product. At least steam link makes sense because you may want to play games from your computer on your living room. The PS5 already fucking lives in your living room, so it's for just for taking a shit I imagine.

      It actually works pretty well if you have fiber and where you're doing remote play also has fiber (or you're just at home but can't use the TV for whatever reason). That said, I rarely use remote play and generally just use my Switch or emulate something on Android instead when I can't use the PS5 for some reason.
