They have had games for a couple of years on the Apple TV, this looks the same with a different name.

Even though I didn't play enough of it, ChuChu was a gem on DC. I'm surprised it never made its way to other consoles (maybe GBA had a version, so I suppose it was playable on gamecube too). Reminded me of a childhood favorite, Lemmings. That update for ChuChu looks amazing btw :awe:

Anything must be better than the current state of mobile gaming. I rarely play any mobile games these days due to the amount of adverts, and pushing you to buy in game credits :problem: :roll:

I was surprised to see it in my Apple tv but I don't need another gaming platform. Especially not a mobile one. Plus it sucks to play anything on the Atv

Anything that discourages games designed to milk microtransactions is good I suppose. Sad to hear Nintendo gave in to this with Mario Kart Lite.

Apple Arcade. When consoles die I might be interested.

I tried the free month...decent games, and I like the no micro transactions aspect. I am so tired of 'pay to win' or 'pay to progress' mobile games.

Seems like the same thing as the app store with a new name and a curated selection, so I don't think I'll keep the service. But a fun idea
