Do you think Stadia will ever consider releasing a keyboard and mouse peripheral?

So I know I can just play on my computer but for the time being my graphics card doesn't support hdr and my computers wifi is far worse than the chromecast. The experience is far better overall graphics wise and even though I prefer keyboard I am super impressed with the controller.. What I'm thinking of is a Stadia brand peripheral with the same features as the controller (minus rumble that would probably be weird). I just feel like the wifi connection really helps with input lag. The headphone jack is really nice too. The last time I played with kb+m on my computer was around the time Orcs Must die 3 was released so I can't remember how bad the input lag was. It definitely wasn't a deal breaker because I played like 80 hours of that game but obviously not 1:1. I had my computer in a better spot for wifi so it pretty much worked perfectly. Would a keyboard and mouse that works like the stadia controller improve input lag or does stadia through Google Chrome work pretty much the same way? Even if it wouldn't improve that at all I still think it would be nice to be able to play on my TV with a keyboard and mouse. Also, it could open up more possibilities like a Google owned full-pc streaming service like shadow, or just plug into any old pc. Lol maybe I'm just stoned rn but I thought of a wireless kb+m with the same sleek design as the stadia controller and got real hyped.

Hi there @CanYouDont,

The latency isn't that bad if you have some good WiFi. I use my laptop which is HP Envy... great device but well s%&^ty WiFi, so I bought a USB WiFi dongle (ASUS AC1900). Now it works great... not ideal but it works, maybe I option for your laptop?

About the WiFi keyboard & mouse, that would be great indeed!
Playing on TV with a keyboard & mouse would be cool. :hugging_face:

I suck on playing with a controller, we urgly need a way to connect some wifi keyboard with the chromecast.

 

It's horrible to play cyberpunk 2077 with a controller when you aplayed last 30 years with mouse.
