Reply to comment by Hakairoku in Valve answers our burning Steam Deck questions — including a possible Steam Controller 2 by retroanduwu24

Was steam link a failure? Isn't it basically the same thing as in home streaming, which has been great since it launched?

The common sentiment with the Steam Link was that it was rendered redundant by just buying a really long ethernet cable.

It was a harsh sentiment, since I believe there's a genuine use case for the Link for situations where a long Ethernet cable won't cover.

That doesn't make sense to me. In what way can an Ethernet cable replace the steam link? You use steam link over the Ethernet cable, or wifi or wan if you feel like it.
