I really want to upgrade my previous gen shield but last time I looked nothing was that impressive.

For video, why do you need more? The shield was obviously designed to work with Stadia, which flat out failed.

Same, there's literally nothing better currently and the shield is starting to show it's age and is lacking HDMI 2.1

anytime a stellar product is released there’s a glut of shittier alternatives and replacements, sometimes from the same company even. higher ups notice REAL QUICK when they shorten their average upgrade cycle from 1-3 years to something like 5-10.

shit always loops back around to planned obsolescence. if you don’t do it, you will not succeed.
