In this video, we take a look at some emulation of the gaming, and game streaming on the new 2022 Apple TV 4K "3rd Generation"
So yeah wasn't expecting much but the apple tv definitely has some power when comes to these streaming devices. We test out some PS1, N64, Sega Saturn, and GBA emulation on the apple tv using Retroarch and Provence EMU. Plus we see how it handles native tvOS games and Game streaming using Steam Link!

Huh, I never considered it until now-but I often sit on my couch (in front of my TV with Apple TV) playing Steam Deck, never even considering steaming. I had thought of streaming my desktop to an iPad Pro for easier access, but never actually gaming on the TV. While my 65” 4K screen wouldn’t favor the AAA games experience, but for streaming emulation through Steam Link it’d be perfect. Thanks for the idea!

It definetly could. There's already Skyline on android that works pretty well, even on phones much less powerful than the iphone 13 lineup. Apple is just way too locked down for this

@ekinteko Жыл бұрын

As a rough level, this A15 Device is about as fast as the Valve SteamDeck. So it should be able to do all the emulation from Atari to the PS Vita. It gets a bit tricky with the higher end systems like Xbox 360, PS3, and WiiU. Going even further above to the Switch wouldn't normally be possible to emulate, but since both systems share very similar code (ARM) it's likely to be able to emulate it half decent, especially with the way Skyline is progressing.

Nvidia isn't removing GeForce now, they are removing Gamestream which is the backend (software that runs on your desktop) for in home streaming with something like moonlight. Gamestream is ending but an open source alternative called Sunshine is up to par now. I've switched over from Gamestream to Sunshine full time rather than waiting for Gamestream to suddenly disappear without a solution. Reeeaaally wish you'd test moonlight on all the devices you review.

You can set up a profile, give each INDIVIDUAL game a specific color on the LED, the buttons I believe as well can be customized. You can do more with the dualsense on Apple TV than you currently can on the ps5. The only thing missing is the headphone jack actually being usable on it.
