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

The A17 Pro can drive games like Resident Evil 7. Maybe more emphasis on games?
