If I want to play video games on my 60inch display I can simply use my already routed hdmi cable connected to my main computer. If I want to play android games I have a smartphone called the Galaxy s5 which I can also plug into my 60inch tv and play games on with a wireless controller. Why would ne1 want something like this ? I don't get it. Better yet I also have a 13in display laptop that blows this thing away and is a real computer with a keyboard! Regardless this is just a gimmick joke item that should never of been made in the first place.

I don't understand comments like this, it's a powerful tablet with low latency streaming capabilities and a pretty good stylus. I plan on hooking this up to the living room TV so it can double up as a console by streaming PC games when I'm not using it as a tablet.
Is it a joke item because it's a tablet or because Nvidia made it? I don't get it.

So no update to the first shield device? Why man? That's what we were waiting for. That was way more practical and portable wasn't it?
We've been able to use a tablet and an PS3/XBOX controller for yrs now. My Surface pro 2 + xbox controller + steam makes this irrelevant but i've never wanted to carry all that crap around to play a game.

Says it's a 32bit chip, not 64bit on a hardware level...
Just not interested in that case, would rather wait for the 64bit model.
