Portable Steam Link

hi Ben. Valve has released the Steam Link so I had the idea that you could make it portable with a built in controller. I don't know if it is possible but I think it would be really cool. You could also give it output to s tv so you have a portable game streaming console but can put it on the big screen.

I had the same idea the other day, I have a small 1080 screen (I use it for my raspberries) and I thought, it would be really neat to take that and an xbox controller and make it portable! I've not spent a lot of time thinking about it yet but I'm worried about the power needs for it tho you could just plug it in seeing as it wouldnt work without a computer on the same network anyways!

This would be super cool, the steamlink does have Wifi, I wonder if it can be improved as well.

I've been looking into this too. I think a hacked up Xbox 360 controller would work great. A free USB port for a USB hub would be great, as would a small Bluetooth keyboard (with track pad built in) or some sort of a witch to switch inputs?
