Nice, i quite like the controller, it has a good feel, and I have one that obviously is not going to be used to play stadia games! Which is a shame, Stadia worked really well for me most of the time.
If you haven’t already, be sure to convert it to Bluetooth mode from WiFi before the end of December or you won’t be able to use it anymore…I only found this out after trying to set it up with my Retropie. The link to the google web tool to convert it is here!

Hopefully someone will make something to do the conversion after the end of the year. I don’t know how difficult that is, but if there’s enough out there, someone might actually do it.
Thank you for this! I completely missed this and have 2 stadia controllers on a shelf right now
No worries! Strange of them to put a deadline…I agree the hardware is pretty solid!
Chrome exclusive :/
Yeah, thankfully worked in Brave! I use Firefox (Librewolf) and haven’t installed Chrome in years…def annoying but not unexpected from Google!
Why only this year?
I wish somebody had found a way for the wifi version to work with a local custom server. Instead of using Bluetooth.
It would probably involve needing to make a custom firmware for the controller in order to redirect it to a different server, and to reimplement its Wifi pairing.
