Should I putchase a 4-year-old nVidia TV Pro, another technology, or wait for next Gen?

  • I'm not doubting that the shield TV would be a superior box. But just that I wouldn't buy a used one, and for the money the Nokia box is a great box, well built until OP can decide to buy a new shield or at least wait until new shield is mentioned or released.

  • First of all, they are in a museum that's only free to visit of you live near that museum. They are already stolen. For the rest of the world that actually owns them, they already metaphorically have 'some rich asshole who got them and put them on their yacht never to be seen again'.

    For many of the countries that own them, there will be thousands of inhabitants that may never be able to afford to travel to the UK to view them. It's unlikely that the British museum will ever tour with them, as once they arrive in almost any country, they will likely stake a claim to have their property back.

  • This can only be a bad thing.

    They will win and like live nation, will merge with more well placed companies until they are printing their own money.

  • So they want help stealing back the stuff that they stole in the first place.

    Many countries would probably pay the 'thieves' to have them back where they belong.

  • Have a look at the Nokia TV Box. Great bit of kit. Sturdy and well built remote. I wouldn't buy a used shield for sure. And the old Nvidia shield is pretty much the same spec as the latest one IIRC. There's not much between them. The shield often drops in price on Amazon too (Europe).

    I haven't heard of anything newer coming out soon from Nvidia and for the price difference I would definitely go for the Nokia, allowing you to also save your cash if Nvidia do bring out a new version.
