NVIDIA Project Shield: My Thoughts (CES 2013)

2013-01-15
what's up guys Lew here and I want to talk about something they got a lot of press a lot of coverage at CES 2013 it is of course Nvidia project shield now I wasn't lucky enough to get my hands on the device I was too busy and I regret it but I did need to make a little recap video if there's anybody out there who hasn't heard about this device yet I want to make it really clear what it's about because after all it's in my opinion probably the most exciting device that came out or got announced at CES 2013 so what is this little thing well at first glance it looks like a portable gaming device but as you can see in this video right here it's a lot more than that not only can you play games right on the devices 5 inch 720p screen but you can also stream content from a PC that's full on PC graphics from your PC games so you can stream them either to the portable device right to that little 5 inch screen but you can also at the same time stream that content to your flat panel display so this is kind of like a Swiss Army knife for gaming it can do all kinds of different things for you most importantly in my opinion it can take a PC game which generally has to be played in front of a workstation and allow you to kick back on your couch and play it in a more casual almost console like way without the need for another console under your TV so this is a very interesting device there is no price announced for it yet and I think if it's gonna be a killer if it's gonna be in everybody's home it's definitely got to be around three maximum four hundred dollars it'll even play steam games so it's kind of in a way like a little portable steam box as you can see here they're demoing at least the Steam interface in the presentation they did not actually play a steam game but they demoed PC games Android games and also games from Nvidia's Tegra zone so a very interesting device I obviously can't wait to get one thumbs up down below if you want to see this thing unboxed on unbox therapy as soon as it comes out but as you guys can tell a very exciting very different device from some of the other stuff that we've seen launched recently or other stuff that we saw at CES 2013 you can see the layout is pretty standard controller layout it has built-in speakers you can see from a graphical standpoint it is pretty impressive you've got Nvidia power on the inside I believe they said thing like 72 GPU cores something along those lines I'll correct myself in the description if that's incorrect anyway guys a very exciting device that I had to share from CES 2013 if you guys are excited in this and interested in as I said before leave a thumbs up down below thanks as always for watching and I'll catch you on the next video alright later
