  • Some of this will have some bias because of my own experience, but for me the best setup has been with:

    • Apple TV 4K - It has apps for both Steam Link and Moonlight, generally has low Bluetooth latency, and the wireless and wired network adapters are great at getting low latency.

    • if you’d rather avoid Apple, the Nvidia Shield is another good option, it supports those apps as well. I just personally found the experience smoother on ATV.

    • the chrome cast ultra can be a good first step. I just can’t remember how different the base model is. But try finding Moonlight app.

    Regarding software, Steam Link is the easiest to set up because it is integrated with steam, but sometimes you get encoding artifacts, and you have less control over setting the best bitrate for your network. I do like the network connection graph it has in the configuration settings though.

    So check out Sunshine to stream from your pc, supports AMD cards as well. And then the Moonlight app.

    Hope you can find what best setup works for you!




  • Here’s a few that me and my kid (7) seem to enjoy:

    • The Stretchers. She often keeps wanting to go back to this one. It is goofy and captures some of the Simpsons hit and run craziness.

    • Overcooked All you can eat edition. Some of the levels can get tough, though we managed to complete all of them when they were individual games. Still making it though the combined one.

    • Phogs. This one we have actually played on another platform, but I would hope it performs well on the switch.

    • Lovers in a dangerous spacetime. This one can get pretty tough, thankfully there are difficulty options.
