Some stuff I use on my Nexus 7 and NVIDIA Shield:

 

SwiftKey - A really nice, widely customizable keyboard. If you don't like it, try the Android L Keyboard.

TeamViewer 9 - has a companion application for Windows/OS X/Linux, allows you to control your PC from your phone.

Asphalt 8 - If you like racing games, it is pretty fun. GT Racing 2 is as well.

TeamSpeak 3 - Come on to the LinusSchnitzelTips Unofficial Teamspeak! The IP is teamschnitzel.ltt-unofficial.com

Nova Launcher - If you dislike the stock launcher (homescreen, app drawer, BlinkFeed), this is for you. You can get a plethora of themes for it, change home screen layouts and icon grids and so on.

Flatro - Really nice looking icon pack for Android, spruces up the appearance with round, flat icons.

Clean Master - Free Optimizer - helps by freeing up RAM usage and can also manage unused content on your device.

Swiftkey was the first thing i installed xD blinkfeed is okay i just see it as a gimmick

Try Swype. IMHO it's better than Swiftkey.

actually Blinkfeed is really nice if you want to get news information very quickly, at first I did not like blinkfeed at all but after using it for about a week all the tech news from other websites are very useful.

I may also suggest (of you're feeling adventurous) flashing the Google play edition rom onto the phone.

Would you be interested turning into a google play edition with ota updates enabled? basically just means its totally stock android and you get the newest os based updates before all other phones save for the nexus 5 and other google play edition phones.

While still retaining most of the cool features!
