This will be interesting, a gaming platform that refreshes similarly to smartphones. Though that will make portable gaming an expensive hobby if the current shield pricing persists.

I would love a Shield... only reason why I haven't already is because it looks bulky as heck, the analog sticks look so close together.

I'll have to settle for a PS4 and PS Vita until a smaller shield is released.

Wow...this would be like if Nintendo were to suddenly release another Virtualboy right after the first one flopped....why?

 

Seems a bit overly rushed for my taste.

Did we ever figure out if the G-Sync monitors will work with anything other than the newest Nvidia GPU's?... I can see argument for it not and it working with all GPU's

G-sync works with 6xx and 7xx series of cards.

This might explain the Shield coupons they're giving away with their GPU's. Trying to move the original model out of inventory.

Unless this version of the Shield can be streamed to from anywhere, not being tied to your wireless router, I'm not interested.

After Nvidia bet amd with their 780 TI if they beat it, then AMD probally gonna do a R9 290x OC edition or something to beat 780 TI:).

 

then Nvidia comes with a GTX platinum which will be the strongest GPU in the world like titan now, and it will take for AMD a year or so to beat it:)

 

Just what i think

Holy shit, I thought you couldn't do that. If I knew the Shield could be used like this, I would have went Nvidia without question. Luckily for me 7990 prices have rose again and Nvidia cards will soon come bundled with $100 off the Shield. 

 

Thank you so much for linking me this! :D
