On Tuesday Google finally unveiled Stadia, their long-teased game streaming service. For the most part, what they delivered lined up with long-standing rumors, with one major exception – there was no Google console announced. Stadia is purely a streaming service, no extra hardware involved. But could a dedicated console arrive eventually? It seems the answer is no.

GamesIndustry.biz asked Stadia boss Phil Harrison about the possibility of a Stadia console, and he shot the concept down hard, while throwing a bit of shade at consoles in general.
