You can build a controller for 5$? Or how is that supposed to work for the market?

TVs should be dumb devices again and just have volume, and source buttons. I have used chromecast for years to do searching and other controls and just send it to TV. My Samsung TV is so slow and has a second delay for everything and joystick wouldn't help

Damn you hard drive you almost got me. My Wii did explode though...

You can do this with Android TV (Which Sony puts on their TVs) - you can just use any bluetooth controller to control your TV. And AndroidTV has Steam Link on it

As someone who has used a game controller as a tv remote and a tv remote as a game controller: GOD PLEASE NO

Tv remotes should be like phones with keyboards so they keep the normal shape but are also easy to type on

Some TVs nowadays have Wii mote style pointers.
