I can’t help but giggle at the pictures. So I guess it’s good for something.

It’s funny because SONY is trying to turn left and NVIDIA is trying to turn right and you know who’s gonna win.

It’s also right timing for NVIDA to come to rescue our gaming industry because everyone else is trying to lock down their system to the point of unusable and hence create the unnecessary cat and mouse battle between console makers and the homebrew communities.

Way to go NVIDIA!!! I adore you

“Devices powered by NVIDIA’s new Tegra 4 chip will be unveiled during the CES 2013 trade show, and the first such device is NVIDIA’s own Project SHIELD portable gaming console. The device features a 5-inch, 1,280 x 720 HD “retinal multitouch display” with a pixel density of 294 dpi along with an HDMI-out port, a microSD slot, wireless streaming capabilities and the Android OS.”

ok, nice handheld but, that machine need more for defeat 3ds and ps vita
1-exclusive games ¿where? 3ds have pokemon, mario and zelda and other nintendo games series and ps vita have: gravity rush, soul sacrifice, little big planet, killzone, teraway and more, so project shield dont have exclusives because is android
2-ok, steam games streaming but… not all the people have a powerfull PC with a nvidia GPU
3- the apple and android hardware race is so ridiculous
today it have 2gb of ram, cpu with 4 or more core, etc but in the next month`s?
4-the piracy, android is synonymous of piracy
just think about it, this is my own opinion, have a nice day

Reversing my previous opinion, I’m actually starting to want one of these. However, I still don’t think it’s a Vita replacement.

It looks *excellent* for emulators on the go. It seems like you’d want the Vita for portable games, and this for portable emulation.

The Vita would have the upper hand in the mobile department if they had priced there games at $20. That is a decent price for the games or lack there of. The graphics on todays mobile phone games are decent if not better on some to compete and leave Sony holding a $300 paper weight. I always said if these mobile games made it’s way to a non touchscreen device that the 3DS and Vita will die a slow death. Thousands of games out there for mobile phones but only a handful for Vita worth paying$40 price tag. Sure anyone can say COD declassified is a good game BUT compared to what? It’s like comparing shit to poop, in the end it’s still crap and none of the FPS games have ever had DLC. No DLC means why bother, why should i buy this if the company that made ditches it and goes on to mess up some more stuff (NHilstic now called N-stgate or whatever). NO ONE GAME CAN SAVE THE VITA JUST KNOW THAT. Killzone will not save the Vita unless DLC is made available, some kind of effort to the patching for these games and not 6months down the road when nearly everyone has stop playing due to bugs and connectivity, plain and simple DO YOUR JOB period.

Uh and the controller that is connected to Project Shield points towards FPS use with dual sticks etc.

You got no clue what is needed for cheap low graphical casual games right? Just a tablet or a smartphone… Not such a bulky thing with a controller and dual sticks that is used for impressive handheld games. Like PSVita does.

I don’t care even how powerful a Tegra 4 or 5 could be, but they’re nowhere having any IP’s like the exclusives on Playstation that’ll release on Android.

I don’t see devs that devoted that they would put 2, 3 or 4 years of gamedeveloping into a game that releases on Android. All they put out on Android is mini/casual games that are made in a short devtime without such a large investment.

So devices like this, Project Shield or Ouya won’t deliver that handheld gaming experience on the go as PSVita or even 3DS does.

But the content of dead trigger and nova is very limited, low polly, low resolution and low texture quality.
Not to mention lacking in dynamic shadows and lighting of a decent qualtiy.

The fact is limited resources means you CANNOT get a game like a good pc game running on a mobile device natively yet, not even CLOSE
