It's for people who don't want / can't have their PC next to the TV.

I like how the controller bundle still has you paying full price for the steam link so it's cheaper to buy the steam link separately from the controller than together

I always wondered what the lag on this is.

PS4 Remote Play with ethernet is like .95:1.

No. It works with lots of controllers including Xbox and PlayStation controllers.

Input lag can be noticeable on WiFi, though people seems to have good luck with it when using modern equipment and staying within a good range. Though its recommened you use a wired connection for any game where input lag could be a problem. So RTS or turn-based games should be fine. FPS or other action games might not go over too well.

I have an HTPC hooked up to my living room TV. Does a steam link have any advantage over just streaming to my htpc from my gaming pc?

Not really. The advantage of the Steam link is it costs $50 and is low power and very small. It doesn't do the job better than another PC.

Actually for $9 that might be good in the long run for energy savings. I'll call my local gamestop tomorrow to see if they're price matching it.

They won't and that price is almost certainly an error. If you just buy it now they'll honor it. But tomorrow it'll be more expensive.

7EuRTgM

I refunded it lol. I clicked through the purchase process. The second i saw the shipping and handling was something like 7, i already clicked purchase.

Its not worth 14.50 for me. I dont see myself gaming in the living room when i have a 27inch monitor in my room. If it was only 7.09, like free shipping and tax included. I would grab it and store it away for future use.
