Top 10 Reasons Why Google Stadia Failed

Free 5G internet for everyone on earth, no delay, and nano-second latency, those are the ultimate answers for cloud gaming..

I used stadia daily and it worked perfectly and flawlessly and now I'm using gforce now wich I feel is more hit or miss

You know your things just bad if watchmojo puts facts out on it

With wifi 7 and av1 streaming this should make a come back

No, there is not enough internet to go around. There is a limit

Google would of been better off buying the rights to games made in the 80s and 90s and sell the product as a Retro Classic Library inside a Game Controller with all the Roms stored on a memory card inside the Controller allowing the user to log in to a account and have access to the Classic Libary without any other connection other then periodically checking in for updates and subscriptions payments.

Hahahaha! Stadia died and I’m happy! Cloud gaming sucks! Forever physical (bigger stuff) and digital (smaller stuff)!

I just got mad with seeing the ads for it every 10 minutes so I decided not to get it and it turns out a lot of people did the same

I loved Stadia for several reasons. And it was 2 major reasons i saw as to why it failed.
Loved it b/c they did well with the cloud based gaming. And the games i played had a lotta fun. I think it failed moreso b/c of the lack of exclusives AND a major lack of marketing. I only heard about it via word of mouth! I can't tell you how many gamers i spoke with that had NEVER heard of it! The price point really wasn't that bad and doesn't both Sony & Microsoft charge a monthly subscription for the online services?? GTFOH with that reason!

thank God this shit needs to die ... gaming is ment to be enjoyed on your own PC and you should own your hands not stream it from some cloud service 👀

i have not played any games that is related to this group it's all Microsoft. but some games are related to rockstar so they would keep them going even if this group failes to match expectations. i say they need to work with Microsoft and try again when the time is right.

I'm glad it failed

I can compare Stadia's business model to paying $10 a month for a Netflix subscription but still having to buy or rent movies you want. How the hell does that make any sense?

Even the controller was a copy of other consoles, the setup of where buttons and thumbsticks go came from PlayStation, the base design and x, y, a, b order came from Xbox🤦‍♂️

Bro they were all talk just talking about the same stuff like instant updates and downloads in different conferences without any new information

1 to 8 should be its google number 9 overpriced number 10 its google

I though for a second you would include hiring Phil Harrison in this project; have you realized every videogame project he involves is a total fiasco?

Well, you have should considered that.

It’s basically a shittier Gamepass Ultimate…why would people buy it?

Stadia is shutting down boys.

You use remote play on xbox.Stadia

God I hate Google and Matpat on same level.

Another reason not mentioned is the terrible logo

3rd world country gamer here.
strongly agree. stadia is impractical to areas with below average internet.

Top 10 reasons why watch mojo failed

Could you imagine a Pixel Box like if Google made a physical game console

By Far the Best Platform ever and sure every company has hiccups in the beginning. But system works well across all my devices.

native hardware all day

At least google is refunding everyone's purchases on Stadia. I don't think any other storefronts would ever do that if and when they die.

Google Stadia fails.....well duh. Paying more for less, who came up with that business nugget?

Ill buy stadia hardware when its dead, will be cheap and nice to mod.

Phil Harrison. That's why it failed. I don't know why that man keeps getting jobs in gaming.

How in hell do you fuck up such a silver plated service like that?
The worst part is, that everybody wanted it to succeed.
I'm glad I took the ShadowPC route instead.

What a pity....

Now shutting down 😭

Hopefully google does the update for * bluetooth (so controllers could be re-used as a remote or spare controller) VS just landfill waste.
If they don't, then all they're environmental- we care about the earth stuff..... would all be B.S. * Google will lose any Eco-Cred they had left!

Only one reason needed: Phil Harrison.

Google Stadia is now going to the Killed By Google graveyard come January 2023.

WatchMojo Ricky: (gulp) I didn’t see that one coming.

Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey, Hey, Hey, Goodbye.

RIP STADIA

now it's officially dead

Let's simplify top reasons why Stadia Failed

1. Pay $129 + Monthly fee + full game price to "stream" your games anywhere (oh... you don't even OWN the game after paying full price... o_O)
2. Lack of exclusives (as they mentioned)
3. You NEED internet to play your games.
4. No physical titles means no tangible ownership of your games and cannot re-sell or trade in to help buy more games.

I get it, cloud streaming is complex, but the business model of gaming today isn't going to work with a netflix like model.

Why would any DEV support a platform for $10, $15, or even $20 a month , when they can make more at selling their game for $60, $70 each

Before you mention Game Pass or PS Plus (PS Plus is a joke honestly) - Game pass is the closest thing we're going to get, but even that doesn't have a lot of AAA content that isn't owned by Microsoft. EA games are older titles (not recent) and yes Bethesda being on board helps a TON with value, but again, no COD, No Blizzard, no exclusives etc. So game Pass is a nice temporary gaming solution for when a game is out on it, you play it for 1-2 months, then cancel. Done.

My point is, the Netflix "streaming" model for gaming just isn't sustainable.

Google thought people would be crazy enough to pay FULL price for a game + a monthly fee... GTFO here... PASS

Stadia lol... good riddance.

Rip I hardly knew yee.. 😂 seriously I never knew this existed till it’s demise

It's dead. But we all knew it was gonna shut down sooner or later.

everyone slamming the video... who cares about the errors and whats actually "free".... stadia failed because it had the completely wrong idea from the get go.... therefore noone had any confidence in the serrvice.
besides, if errors are made who's fault is that? noone could ever understand googles marketting anyway

Did anyone here ever actually genuinely try this bullshit? Like seriously, who actually paid money to google to use this service? Lol

Its dead
