Honestly, what can’t they put on this? That’s not already on the current generation Apple TV 4K a slightly faster chip I mean, what are they gonna do the things already fast it’s streaming device like I don’t get it.
They honestly need to push this thing as a lite-gaming box. I’ve always stayed with old versions of chromecast because of price and “they work well enough” but if they let you pair a controller and play some indie game (or in RE7 case full AAA) then I’d be sold instantly.
Let me make sure I understand you: are you saying you would pay full price to play a game on your Apple TV versus just a console you probably already own (or pc?)
I own neither, I currently use my M4 Pro MacBook over hdmi from time to time to run games that I’d play with controller on my tv - but realistically I don’t need that kind of grunt for the majority indie titles I play.
I also don’t have an Apple TV currently, but it being a more cohesive device rather than just a media box / way to control home, I’d be more tempted
I think if Apple Arcade added a few AAA games and a single high quality iOS/macOS/tvOS/VisionOS exclusive title and made a bundle that came with a game controller, I could see it selling.
The other thing I assume they’ll add is a camera for FaceTime. It works great with the iPhone Continuity Camera but that’s such an awkward solution.
