PC gaming in on your living room TV without having to move our computeres is something many of us would enjoy immensely. After all, who doesn't want to play a modded Skyrim or outsmart opponents in Civilization from the comfort of your sofa? Valve's working to bring us this through Steam Machines and even offer PC gaming on the go with the Steam Boy, but they both run off of SteamOS. Nvidia took one look at the Steam Machine, decided they could do better, and made the Shield Android TV.
The main issue with SteamOS is that it's a Linux-based OS that has limited support on the Steam platform. Nvidia's Shield Android TV bypasses that restriction and offers the ability to stream any PC game, Steam or otherwise, to your TV from your computer. The only catch is that your computer needs an Nvidia GeForce card to do so. The Shield Android TV offers the ability to play using a controller or using a more traditional mouse and keyboard setup.
Nvidia's living room PC gaming solution also offers Netflix, YouTube, and Hulu streaming in Dolby 7.1 surround sound. to compete with the new Apple TV. The Shield Android TV is available now for $199.99.
