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.
