Reggie; Google Project Stream is something we look at closely

Google recently released Project Stream in a very limited beta to see how it would hold up streaming Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.

Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime says that he has tried it but said that there was some lag which he understands gamers would be frustrated about. However, Nintendo is looking closely at it.

We’re certainly observing everything that’s happening in the western markets form a streaming technology standpoint. I myself have tried the Google experience, and so it’s something that absolutely we’re all looking at.

In the end though, it has to be a great experience for the consumer, and the Google experience that I had, there’s a bit of lag, and when that happens, as a consumer, you get frustrated

I for one still do not hope it ends up going in this direction. Perhaps I am too attached to my physical game copies but hey … it just feels more natural to me.
