A New Challenger Appears

Kotaku
Gamebreaker

A bit surprised someone else didn't post this, but Nvidia, the company which is best known for making graphics processors showed off on CES2013 their project: Shield.

A portable handheld system which has a dedicated 5 inch 720p touchscreen which can connect to your TV with 4K resolution and act as a full system. It runs on Android Jellybean. Can run Netflix and Hulu and other media streaming apps. It can stream games from your PC to your controller. It also has a 5 to 10 hour battery.

Who would have guessed Nvidia was looking into the market.

I think we're all trying to politely pretend that it doesn't exist.

It looks ugly and bulky (at least the controller part does) and it'll probably be laggy as hell. We'll see.

5 to 10 hour battery is surprising though. Props for that.

This thing is probably going to cost a fortune anyway.
