Game streaming?

Could/Would Sky Glass support game streaming apps like GeForce Now, Xbox Cloud, Luna (ok probably not Luna given it's Amazon links) etc.? Not sure how beefy the processing power is inside it compared to other TV's that offer them like Samsung and LG.

Naturally I can external HDMI device such as an Nvidia Shield or Fire TV Stick,  but it would be good to know if there are plans to introduce them natively.

I'd think it's extremely unlikely that the CPU/GPU in the Gen 2 was specified for that purpose: the Gen 1 certainly wasn't.

It doesn't need to have a decent cpu or gpu, my bedroom tv, which is a 2019 or 2020 43' LG can handle GeForce now and Xbox streaming natively via LG OS. Both are just a skinned chromium web browser tab tbh.
