Has anyone tried shadow.tech? Or is this Snake Oil Remedy for Everything?

Bored Gamer is often sponsored by them. I can’t test the service here in AU, but the idea is reasonable if your latency is low enough
Think of it as a remote desktop for gaming, you connect to them, they provide the hardware and just stream everything to you.

I'm actually testing it out right now. I was going to do a quickie video over the weekend with my experiences.
It works great in some ways, with 2 caveats:
1. You NEED to be able to have an internet connection with at least 30 Mb/s --> so you got to have at least a decent cable connection. Don't even think about it with DSL.
2. Getting peripherals to work is wonky. If you use a mouse and keyboard, you are ok. Dual joysticks? I haven't gotten stuff like that to work.
Also, while it has beta support for a mic, there is no support for a video cam, so FOIP isn't going to be available.
