Did you know that Nvidia has a game system? I just found out.
I just found out a few weeks ago that Nvidia has a game system. Its called the Nvidia Shield and it looks good. It has one of the most powerful mobile processors around, the tegra 4 and it has 2gb of ram. The Shield also has a 720p display which is perfect for movies or high quality games. The interesting part is that the system has a sort of built in controller. The buttons can be mapped for any game that supports it. It runs on androids Jelly Bean operating system. Android wasn't always taken seriously as a good alternative to other tablets, but it has gained a lot of popularity over the years and lots of game developers have chosen to release their games for it.Some big ones on my list include Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, Dead Trigger 2, and Anomaly 2. The main reason that I want this machine though, is because it can actually stream pc games in 720p or 1080p and you can play them anywhere. To do this you need a fairly decent gaming computer with an Nvidia 600 or 700 series graphics card. You also need a pretty good router that supports game streaming. You can find a list of game stream ready routers here or if a new router isn't in the budget I found a spreadsheet about compatible routers here. I did not make the spreadsheet, so if you don't find what you are looking for I cant help that much.
