![]() And if you can afford to sit tight, non-gamers will probably want to wait it out until a 4K version of Roku is ready. Keep in mind that you’ll actually need a 4K TV to see any 4K. But it's also significantly more capable than its current competition, as it's the first big-name offering to support 4K, and its guts and services should make gamers pretty happy. So yes, at $200 the Shield box comes about double the price of most full-feature set-top boxes. You’ll probably end up needing that microSD slot or USB ports for storage, because the box only has 16GB onboard. While set-top boxes like Amazon Fire TV and Google's Nexus Player also offer gaming experiences, they don't have nearly enough horsepower to run the sort of titles Shield will offer.Īlong with HDMI-out, dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 4.1 support, the new box also has a Gigabit Ethernet jack, a pair of USB 3.0 ports, and a microSD slot. There will be ports of major titles available through Google Play for Android TV, offered on a pay-per-download basis. Grid also won’t be the only way to get games for the new Shield. Amazon Instant Video isn’t part of the Android TV offerings, which cuts into the potential 4K content available, but there should still be plenty to watch.īetween the inevitable transition to 4K over the next several years, Google's continued investment in the Android TV platform, and the Shield box's robust guts, it's not unreasonable to assume that this little black box could have a useful life expectancy that's far longer than any of its competitors. ![]() It'll also work like a Chromecast, acting as middleman to stream content from your device to your television. Not only that, but it includes HEVC and VP9 decoders, meaning it should run 4K video from Netflix, YouTube, and the Android TV version of Google Play. The Shield, meanwhile, will do so when it launches this May. But when you consider that this Shield can also pump out 4K video and runs Android TV-the same newish smart TV platform found on the Nexus Player and upcoming TVs from Sharp and Sony-it starts to look less like a niche product, and more like the most future-proof media streamer you can buy today.Įventually, all of the major set-top boxes-Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, you name it-will have versions that output at 4K. A $200 streaming box and console, with powerful enough guts to run Crysis 3 and other serious games, certainly seems to have a very specific demo in mind. and i did not figure a way to do it by console comands. this mod is simply awesome since ingame way of cleaning demerits does not work. It's tempting to ignore Nvidia’s new Shield box if you're not a gamer.
