I love how nobody has mentioned google's thing in here
I'd say that's the appropriate response

Quote from Idkbutlike2:
Personally, I still like Classicvania despite its stiffness. Classic Mega Man, though? Not so much.
I'm the opposite. Most of NES Mega Man has aged really well in my book (by which I mean, everything except for 1 and some parts of 2).
But I can't deal with the controls of Classicvania. The series may as well have not existed for me until the advent of the IGAvania era when it started being the latter half of "Metroidvania" in genre.
my thoughts are basically
- I hate the idea
- google will most likely backhand money to devs to convince them to make slowly paced games that won't be compromised by latency issues, so I expect a chilling effect on twitchy fast action games
- difficult to see a situation in which a person can afford lightning fast internet but can't afford a few hundred <insert currency here> for a local console, so hard to see who this is aimed at
which leads into what google are actually doing:
- playing on this service equates to training Skynet
- it will succeed, because google will pump infinite money into it until it does

One shall stand, one shall ball.
Legitimately all I know about the Google thing is everyone I know of who watched it went, "Wow! That's the exact opposite of what I want!" I haven't seen anyone have anything positive to say about it. Maybe Silicon Valley types like it or something but they like coffee makers with DRM built in or some shit so I don't pay much attention to them.
