NVidia Shield TV

So does anyone own one yet and do we know if OCUK will be stocking them?

I've just been on the big shopping website and the US version has them (16GB model) for $199 whereas the UK site has them for £269. Now I appreciate we have a little VAT to add but £120 difference is really taking the biscuit.

I'm very keen on getting one but definitely won't be paying £269 for the privilege!

why not just buy a proper console?

or use your pc?

I think the price is so high because it is not currently released in the UK

I've already got a PS4 and obviously PC but the shield TV looks pretty cool and if it means I can just stick Witcher 3 on the big TV downstairs instead of buying it again on PS4 that'd be awesome.

If he's got a high end PC, it will outperform both the XB1 and PS4. Plus he's probably got like 200 Steam games. Steam sales are magnificent so I can see where he's coming from. Skyrim with HD patch in his living room? Can your PS4 or XB1 do that?

I've been waiting for the Shield TV since it was announced as i think it will make an awesome Kodi/Emulation/Streaming box (and other things).

Was looking at getting it from America but i think i will just wait till it's released in the UK and hope OCUK stock them (if not it will be from the rainforest).
