Lot of words and not a lot of details. I didn’t catch anything about how these games would be played, like with a TV remote? Or are these mobile games? It sounds like they hired some executives and are ramping up teams. Tell me when they have a beta available.
Curious why they didn't partner with Stadia, or perhaps offer to take it over/buy it. Pretty cool tech, at least. Unless they are just going for simple remote based TV games.
There are so many different types of devices that support Netflix, how could they possibly support them all with a controller?

I think that's why he was so hesitant to answer.

Kind of wish they would finish TV show series first before branching off into something that nobody asked for.
I didn't know Netflix already offered games, and after looking at the selection I'm not surprised.
