As soon as you approach that question of "who is this for?" Then the whole thing falls to pieces imo. It's for that person who has an unlimited high speed broadband package, but doesn't have any gaming devices on the end of that. Also it's for the casual gamer who doesn't want to invest in gaming hardware but will buy a sub to core gaming and start buying 60e AAA games on that?

This unicorn just didn't exist imo.

yeah cause 35Mbps is something only heard in science fiction. I have 80Mbps in my area here in Brazil and is not even the fastest deal, no data cap.

Does my post read "fast internet speeds does not exist" I'm fairly certain it doesn't.

Also, woohoo, you have 80Mbps, do you have no gaming devices which make use of that connection? if you have any console which does you are also after missing another part of my post.

I'm not saying that good internet doesn't exist, but my connection there has 2 gaming PC's at the end of it, as well as 2 Nintendo Switches and a PS4. If I didn't have those systems and just wanted my mobile phone to connect to facebook I would go for a mobile only solution which is what I know a ton of people here to be on, that won't cut it for Stadia as the data caps on those things peak at around 20GB/Month for the basic Facebook packages.

Again the person who has a 50+e internet connection and wants to game with it probably already has put a console on the end of that line, if you aren't willing to splash out on a 200e or so PS4 then you probably won't go online pre order the stadia controller then sign up for a subscription and buy a 60e copy of Doom Eternal on it, that person just doesn't exist imo.
