Unfortunately, it is expensive and uses older hardware that doesn't fully support all the new stuff. It does well with most things though.
There are some people that find it getting to be buggy, while others still have a great experience after 3 years of ownership.
I personally think this is still too expensive for a device using 3 year old hardware, but I would buy a new version of this. However, I'm not sure if Nvidia will update the hardware again.
If you just want a device that works and you aren't worried about playing high quality Blu Ray rips, this is probably overkill - I'd probably look at the firetv, Roku, ccwgtv, Apple 4k, etc.
Here's a decent discussion on Reddit comparing the Apple TV 4k / Firecube 3 / Shield Pro TV - https://www.reddit.com/r/ShieldAn...are_
Edit - it's also at Best Buy and B&H Photo for the same price.

Nvidia Video cards are hands down the number one seller for PC gamers. The Shield takes this to the next level allowing you to game stream directly from your PC to the LR TV. It also plays Android games and most all the Emulators you could possibly want. Along with all the popular Streaming apps and VPN support there's not much it can't do.
Don't pass this up just because it's getting a little old, it's still a solid device on many levels.
Last purchased Oct 29, 2019 ...as I recall it was first day this model was released
It was $170 during amazon day. Glad I picked one up. But some rumblings that after upgrading to android 11, the Amazon firecube is faster(??).

I'd recommend looking at the differences and making a decision based on your use-case.

Someone here convince me otherwise? Thanks
I bought this when I decided to get rid of DirecTV a few years ago so the $200 I paid was nothing because it saved me money in the long run. It allowed me to get rid of my HTPC, too. I defended HTPCs for a long time when other people were abandoning them. But after looking into the Shield it did everything the HTPC did and did it more seamlessly. The only thing it doesn't do is play discs but I'll live with that.
