They assuredly got the vast majority of their payment up front.
Oh, totally. I meant more for brand awareness and looking toward the future for them.

Also that there's never been a good one for iOS. They were all either drastically overpriced (partially due to MFI requirements) or shit.
But here's the problem, Apple TV doesn't allow developers to require a controller - all games MUST be playable with the remote control device. FireTV doesn't have that stupid restriction.Apple TV supports the same controllers their iOS devices do - it's just that none is included with the Apple TV itself (big mistake, IMO)
Dolby audio support on the headphone jack. Why isn't that a thing on any of the consoles and a fucking Fire TV beats them to it?
I never attempted anything beyond the 16bit era. I'll probably just grab this to be honest. But the power in the FireTV wasn't terrible. I'm pretty sure you could google some users who used it for DC and PS1.
Also if the OG controller works with the new one that will be awesome!
Don't really care that much for it but having Shovel Knight and Duck Tales included with purchase is fantastic.
Nice price.
Once this guy gets rooted, going to be a killer emu/XBMC box. Wish it had 3GB RAM, though...that would make it last much longer.
24FPS: YAY!!!
100Mbps Ethernet for 4k????: Boooo!!!!
HDMI 2.0a????
DTS-HD/True-HD passthru????
Shots fired directly at Apple - $10 cheaper, includes controller and two games, 4k streaming support, expandable storage, already lots of apps/games, many designed to require the controller.
Darn, though, another 4k streaming device that requires HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2, which my 4kTV doesn't have

Wait, KotOR with a controller?
I want Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic to work with a controller on Steam...

LOL Apple TV.
I have to wonder who are they expecting to pull with the game edition. The device itself is fine, but when will they put out a box with better hardware to handle games you'd see on the PS4 or Xbone? Y'know as an option? I think it would be cool for Android to start getting more AAA experiences.
Just a heads up, I've had one of these for a little while, and the controller's the best I've used on any set-top platform. My only problem is the face buttons and d-pad have a little more resistance than I'd like, but that might be desirable by some.
Also the rubberized grips are so good. SO good.

Because not everyone wants that at all. In general there are more people looking for a television oriented media consumption device for all manner of streaming services and maybe even apps. Gaming is just an additional benefit for those so inclined in a casual manner. There is no need to make one "to handle games you'd see on the PS4 or Xbone". These devices are also evolving yearly, so the cost and performance will scale over time to be more powerful and cheaper, but still catering to casual use
Can i please please just stream Matroska containers over a UNC path?
Please?
Can you put emulators on the fire TV's?
Do these things not sell? I know far more people who own Fire TVs then anyone with Apple TVs. Anecdotal I know, but still.
If you could do full Android support for this, I'd be all over this.
What? You can. You can side load any Android app. Whether or not the interface will work with the remote, keyboard, mouse, or controller is another issue, but you can certainly run all Android apps on it. It's the reason Kodi is so easy to get on it.
