Amazon casually dropped the news this thursday that they would be entering the cloud gaming market with their new service called Luna. Of course if you are familiar with Geforce Now, xCloud, or Stadia you have heard it all before - Play your favorite games anytime from any device using the most advanced cloud technology ever! Of course this hasn’t played out well for Stadia and with Microsoft's xCloud service and Playstation Now already poised to be a leader in this space you have to wonder… How many people are interested in a cloud gaming service provided by Amazon?

While I'm not interested in the service itself, I am interested in hearing more about how that controller connectivity works. It's an interesting idea.
Stadia's model is quite good in my opinion. Stadia Pro is great for building up a library over time, but you can also not pay for it and just buy games.
