A cool for the most popular video streaming service will bring an unprecedented level of control to the in-game action for hours of fun on the go. has redefined streaming content in more ways than one for more than a decade now. The platform has a whopping 207.64 million paid subscribers worldwide as of the first quarter of 2021 as . But according to internal reports, Netflix’s growth graph is on a flattening trajectory in the last couple of years, and the next big avenue to look forward to is gaming. The service will be a part of the current Netflix portfolio and will be offered at no extra cost to the subscribers. This will give Netflix an edge over current competitors like Disney+, Amazon Prime Videos and Apple TV+. The cloud gaming service is set to debut early next year and we could expect an announcement by the end of this year too. This gives the perfect opportunity to concept designers for coming up with Netflix branded gaming accessories that will ultimately brace the platform just like Google Stadia, Xbox Gaming pass, Nividia GeForce Now, and Amazon Luna. The gaming controller has a very distinct form factor – something akin to the Joy-Con controllers but still very unique in its own rights. Designers Seong Bin Yoon and have envisioned a design that is good for casual gaming as well as AR and VR-assisted gaming fun. The vertical grip positioning with bumper buttons on the sides coincides with that vision for the freedom of movement in all directions. The front has the customary joystick, directional pad, and buttons for in-game input. Interestingly the left and right sections of the controller can move independently, giving you better control, and hence a tactical advantage with these pads. On both sides, there are volume dial buttons, so I’m assuming the controller can beam stereo audio through the speaker-like vents on the bottom front on both sides. The attention to detail can be seen in the Netflix icon-shaped direction controller, we are fans. This design gets a thumbs up from my side – with its great balance of functionality with the Netflix branding. So if anyone at Netflix is listening, maybe you should have a word with these guys!
