With the service permanently offline, the proprietary Stadia Controller threatened to fill up landfills until Google devised a plan to convert them to generic Bluetooth devices that can work on almost anything. The app to open up the controller to other devices is a web service, which previously had a shutdown date of December 2023. That apparently isn&#8217;t enough time to convert all these controllers, so the Stadia Controller Salvage operation will run for a whole additional year. X (formerly Twitter) user Wario64 was the first to spot the announcement, which says the online tool will continue running until December 31, 2024.<\/p>\n<p \/>\n<div class=\"share_submission\" style=\"position:relative\">\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=Google's+Stadia+Controller+Salvage+Operation+Will+Run+For+Another+Year%3A+https%3A%2F%2Ftech.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F12%2F18%2F2056218%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/twitter_icon_large-194.png\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftech.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F12%2F18%2F2056218%2Fgoogles-stadia-controller-salvage-operation-will-run-for-another-year%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/facebook_icon_large-97.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tech.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/12\/18\/2056218\/googles-stadia-controller-salvage-operation-will-run-for-another-year?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\">Read more of this story<\/a> at Slashdot.<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Slashdot &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/tech.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/12\/18\/2056218\/googles-stadia-controller-salvage-operation-will-run-for-another-year?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google&#8217;s Stadia Controller Salvage Operation Will Run For Another Year<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ron Amadeo reports via Ars Technica: Stadia might be dead, but the controllers for Google&#8217;s cloud-based gaming platform are still out there.
