&quot;Cloud gaming&quot; has plenty of issues with performance and latency (see the now-defunct OnLive) and is too reliant on a user&#x27;s internet connection. TVs may have better hardware than 10 year old consoles but certainly aren&#x27;t anywhere near current generation consoles.<p>It might work for low end or previous generation games, but for cutting edge high-end AAA games, you absolutely need cutting edge high-end hardware.<p>Not to mention, TV software is an absolute mess of unstandardised differing software between every manufacturer, so it would be very difficult for game makers to get their software&#x2F;games to work on every TV.
