The last batch of 90-year-old children's shoes (which is actually 99 years old in terms of age) have now grown up and entered adulthood, with the future being dominated by the post-00 generation. Since 2018, my girlfriend asked me to choose a New Year gift for my sister-in-law, and I thought it would be fun to pick something that a child would enjoy. Back then, popular gaming systems included Gameboy, NDS, Nintendo, Sony PlayStation, PS2, PSP, and Xbox 360. The console era was evolving, and now the next-gen systems like Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 are taking over.
According to Chinese law, anyone over the age of 18 is considered an adult. Nowadays, kids tend to play on smartphones or iPads, while older gamers often use gaming laptops or e-sports desktops. A year ago, I came across a new desktop computer equipped with a GTX 1070 GPU. I thought it would be great to pair it with a small device that could double as a media player and gaming console — the NVIDIA SHIELD TV.
Reasons to Buy:
The main attraction is its ability to stream PC games, which is perfect for playing on a big TV. It also supports classic Nintendo titles, thanks to the same Tegra X1 chip used in the Nintendo Switch. Plus, it’s a 4K Android box. For tech enthusiasts, knowing that the SHIELD TV uses the same chip as the Switch makes it even more appealing. With a powerful desktop GPU like the GTX 1070, you can easily stream games to your TV without any lag.
Appearance Gallery:
The design is sleek and minimalistic, with the iconic green label on the white packaging. Inside, you’ll find the SHIELD TV unit, a remote control, a gamepad, power adapter, and other accessories. The gamepad resembles a PS4 controller but has a unique "green faith" aesthetic. It charges via micro-USB and can be used while charging. The remote feels smooth and intuitive, though its bright face might not appeal to everyone.
The back panel features a dedicated power connector, LAN port, HDMI output, and two USB 3.0 ports. The thermal vents suggest that this isn’t just a simple media player — it’s built to handle serious performance. The front panel lights up with a soft green glow when powered on, adding a subtle touch of style.
Experience Feelings:
Using the SHIELD TV for PC streaming is a game-changer. As long as your desktop or laptop has a GTX-level graphics card, you can stream games like GTA V, Battlefield, or StarCraft II to your TV. A strong 5GHz Wi-Fi connection is recommended for the best experience. With a wireless keyboard and mouse, you can sit back and enjoy your favorite games on the big screen.
Summary:
While a dedicated gaming PC will always offer better performance, the SHIELD TV provides a convenient way to stream PC games to your TV without cluttering your living room. It functions like an Android box, allowing you to watch videos, stream content, or play games all in one device. It’s compact, versatile, and ideal for those who want to enjoy PC gaming on the go.
Advantages:
1. Built-in iQiyi partnership for video streaming.
2. Powerful hardware (Tegra X1 + 3GB RAM + 16GB storage) ensures a smooth experience for the next few years.

1. Long-term PC streaming can cause noticeable cooling noise, especially at night.
