They totally ignored the experience of other gaming platform holders. It took a generation for xbox to "catch on". It really took off only in x360 era and later. Imagine if the xbox was killed off in 2004. Stadia was shut down after 3 years and first party devs were laid off even earlier. That's completely insane - it takes years to develop proper AAA games. Just look what SONY first party studios are doing. Imagine if Naughty Dog was dissolved after 3 years. The Wii U was weak, but Nintendo didn't leave gamedev business. They learned from their mistakes and the Switch became a huge success. PSNow streaming service is still running just fine and SONY doesn't plan to shut it down. So game streaming business model is certainly viable. It seems like that Google didn't even try to make Stadia a success.
