I'd be excited if it wasn't just an Android device like the one I already have. I'm sure it will kick ass, but even with a controller none of my Android games can compare to my 3DS games.

The problem will all the new Android gaming consoles/handhelds is that they are limited by the lowest common denominator. Mobile gaming developers have to make their games work on a Galaxy S, Galaxy SIII, and everything in-between.

That's why Android and iOS games will never be able to compete with closed single run dedicated consoles.

I'll play Angry Birds on the go when I don't want to hall around more than one device and I'll enjoy Zelda OoT 3D when I want a real game.


"Using software built by Nvidia, the Shield provides remote access to the games installed on your gaming PC at home, including Steam titles. Users can play any PC game on the Shield from anywhere within the same local Wi-Fi network. " This device won't be limited to smartphone games.


Why, pray tell, would I EVER want to stream my PC games, that usualy work better with a mouse and keyboard, onto a tiny screen with a lower resolution than my 24 inch full HD monitor? Why oh why would I care about playing a PC game on a handheld that loses that ability if I walk 100 feet away from my wireless router? Why would ANYONE buy this thing for streaming PC games?

If I want to play a PC game I'm going to do it with my kick ass gaming PC.
