NVIDIA met fin à la fonctionnalité GameStream pour ses produits Shield TV

Come mid-February 2023, NVIDIA will be ending its GameStream feature on its Shield TV products. The GameStream feature has allowed owners of the Shield TV to stream games from their PC to their Shield TV. It might not have been the flagship feature of the Shield TV, but it has been popular enough that the cancellation has caused quite some stir on the internet. NVIDIA didn’t provide any reason as to why the company is ending the GameStream feature, but one could potentially imagine that the company wants to push its customers to use its GeForce NOW paid streaming service instead.

Cependant, NVIDIA does suggest that users could use Steam Link instead, to stream games from their PC to the Shield TV. Cela dit, this would limit users to games found on Steam, which doesn’t seem like a great compromise. For those that stream their games, NVIDIA Share is compatible with Steam Link, so there shouldn’t be any problem continuing to stream games when playing on the Shield TV.
