Hi all, I’ve been thinking about setting things up so I can play Steam games on my TV but I’m a little confused on the setup. So here’s what I was planning:

  • main laptop in office will stream the game
  • TV in living room connected to Nvida shield
  • Nvidia shield runs Steam Link to connect to laptop
  • Controllers connect to Nvidia shield??

I think the main thing that confuses me is if I can connect my controllers to the Nvidia shield or do they need to connect to the laptop?

Anyone have a similar setup that works?

    I wish we could get Steam Link on Xbox. That’d be the ideal solution for me since I’ve got the controller already setup. The Shield is probably a decent solution, but it’s an extra device in the chain.

      There’s Moonlight for Xbox, which is basically Steam Link but better.
