dot dot at Google i/o there is actually a video booth here and for the first time at least for me I know some people out there have already gotten their hands on the shield this is my first time I'm super excited we have Andrew here from Nvidia giving us a quick rundown of everything that the shield has to offer if some of this news seems a little bit you might know about some of the things that the field offers but now we get to see it first that's what is important here so Kendra when we go ahead and get started with our demo okay today so this is a nvidia shield so might have heard about it it's an android gaming device so it runs native android you see there it is android jelly bean and so this is a touchscreen 720p display you have all your standard Android applications maps and google chrome and all that good stuff and also any other android apps that you've purchased over the years and then we also have the shield dashboard in here which shows you all the games that have been optimized for shield so this is a sort of more of a 3d feel but we didn't want to pollute the standard android so we sort of had that as a standalone app so this has a TegraZone field i'll show you all the upcoming games you can get a full list and then if you see one of interest you can click on it have a look and if you click by you actually go to the Play Store and actually can purchase it there so i think it's worth mentioning here going to be looking primarily at the android gaming aspect of the field I did ask if extremely steam or your to the show from a computer would be possible a lot of quarters kind of leaving never III that'll be a three yeah we don't have that set up here so we just got the standard native android gaming that the pc does shield streaming yeah we'll let that down at e3 from coming up to look at that so I also heard that pre-orders are going to be happening soon yep may twentieth mate Tony okay and what price point did the shield like oh yeah we announced it yesterday so it's 349 so good price of you know nice nice price there it's not ridiculously expensive but some people were worried about yeah I think it's a really good value and it definitely gives the best android gaming experience by play father question for you okay what do you I Oh life kind of a split answered okay okay so what I found is the standard android apps are great that good maps is really cool which is kind of weird but then gaming is obviously grabs me that's where i usually really give to play so sonics a bit of an old favorite that i love there are a couple of games that are coming out I haven't been announced yet that I've been testing you know which you're pretty cool digunakan yeah hook is pretty cool yeah and then also some of the older emulators actually all the red point work really well managed in here yeah well luckily since we do have the nvidia display and the shield on hand here at Google i/o I'm gonna go ahead and have a little bit of fun with it myself we're going to report that let's know kind of first impressions on it but until then Andrew thank you so much German pleasure yeah all right android authority calm stay tuned we have all the news coming to you from google i/o 2013
