This is just ridiculous. They sre essentially trying to sell "Game Ready" chromebooks to play Stadia when all you need is a controller? 
I remember when I was first notified by Google to try stadia when it was first released. I didn't hesitate to sign up. "It's from Google," I thought to myself. I immediately bought the founders addit... See more...
I remember when I was first notified by Google to try stadia when it was first released. I didn't hesitate to sign up. "It's from Google," I thought to myself. I immediately bought the founders addition with chrome cast ultra. I also bought 2 more controllers for myself and my two sons.  Knowing there could be some challenges I still gave it the commitment and support Google asked for. I told my friends about it. They all seem to be interested but some, never pulled the trigger. They are all from PS5 and PC game platforms.  It may not have been the right platform for them but I enjoyed it despite the problems with connections and the input lag to sound sync problems.  I enjoyed it nonetheless. I supported it with game purchases. I enjoyed some great titles and old favorites. Most were amazing and I knew I would continue my pro subscription. I even bought 5 Google nest pods to ensure a wifinet for the house among other Google products.  The decision for Google to take down the servers does quite of bit to my mentality towards where I take my business moving forward. No longer will I ever support Google products without a second thought.  And I will most likely not recommend Google products or services to anyone. It's a shame and I'm left with remorse and regrets.  Google... you are multi-billion dollar company. Even if you were to loose millions if not dozens of or hundreds of millions, you should have kept this going.  You are now known as a company that gave up. A company image destroyed. A laughing stock among other smaller companies in the streaming game space.  You would have received more traction as time comes and you could have done a bit more marketing to make it happen but you never did.  And now you left loyal supporters like me and many others left feeling empty with regrets.  Change your perspective, don't give up and continue to support the ones who supported you by keeping the servers up and running. Don't leave people hanging with a bad company image.  You're Google. You essentially own the internet why not let this one little fraction of your entire organization live regardless of your bottom line?  Do it for the little people. Those who said no to consoles and PC games who need an alternative. You have the market place for it. Keep it going and don't look back.  Otherwise, your company image simply goes down the drain. You are now penetrable. Your services and products can't be trusted. It would be a waste to buy them.  This is what I think now of your organization. Next thing i know google drive or email can be subject to similar tragedies.  Yet my 30 year old Hotmail is still alive and Microsoft Office regardless of the version still works on my 10 year old laptop. Can the same be said about Google business suite or google drive?  Because of this I'm migrating everything else to OneDrive and outlook.com for emails etc...  One example of one consumer slowly migrating away from your other services over the fall of this one.  You think this has no impact but it actually does. You started a chain reaction which will hurt more than carrying few servers to keep a novel idea as gaming without a console or other forms of equipment for the masses.  You were and still are on to something. You paved the way for people to enjoy games without the need for all the other stuff needed to enjoy them. All we needed was a controller. You done this and now you have killed a majestic thing down to an extinction for reasons nobody understands exept for the comment of not have enough traction.  It's ridiculous... you own the internet marketing space. Use it to bring light to others. Offer free controllers for pro subscribers. Do something instead of simply just giving up.  I'm disappointed in you. You could have revolutionized a new era of gaming and you are bringing it down to let others companies leave you in the dust forgotten.  I hope things will change but ending in January of 2023 does not seem like the right answer. The risk of damage to other Google related services would be unimaginable in my opinion regardless of how insignificant it may seem to your executives.  How sad this all is for your soon to be disloyal supporters.

Hello,  Isn't google responsible for refunding all games bought including DLC? If we bought the game, and the service to play those games is no longer available how is this not considered as something that needs to be refunded to the consumer? 
Can you please tell me where I go to return the controller

I'm having the same issue. I can't play any games because the 2 controllers I bought do not work at all. I don't even know what google is doing. The TV screen indicates that I need to link my controller and I have followed the directions but no matter what I do this POS says the same error over and over.
I too would like to get my money back and I fully emphasize with you. What a joke. I'm sick of the controller connection issues.
My controller acts the same way. It just doesn't connect the way it should. It's in the same wifi network but still has issues connecting. 
I cant seem to get two controllers to connect to play samurai showdown consistently. When I long press on the stadia button to try and exit the controller does not respond once the menu to exit stadia... See more...
I cant seem to get two controllers to connect to play samurai showdown consistently. When I long press on the stadia button to try and exit the controller does not respond once the menu to exit stadia pops up. I'm thinking if just buying a PS4 and returning stadia. What good is all of this if my kids cant connect a controller to play and enjoy the game. Spent 40 minutes just going through the forum and reading posts and thinking if I had a console I could be playing with my kids right now instead of shutting down the controller restarting my phone app reconnecting to my chromecast and after 3 minutes of play the controller disconnects again. This happened 5 time so far Giving this device few more days until officially label this as either awesome or a POS and moving on.
