Will / could this be made to play games on my TV?

[StuMcBill]

Is it theoretically possible that this could be updated (or games programmed) to allow me to play Android Games on my TV?

I know this defeats the whole "chromecast does the streaming" as the game would have to be rendered on the device and beamed to the TV, but I just wondered if anything like this would be possible?

Cheers

According to this interview chromecast is the lightweight streamer, google tv is designed for a fuller experience:

Where Google TV can provide ?an immersive experience? that?s appropriate for gaming, Chromecast will have too much latency for gaming, Pichai explained.

That functionality would have been really cool! Oh well
