Why bother? You can get an sbc PC with a decent agpu, throw SteamOS on it and have the little PC console of your dreams. There's a few good 6600U ones online. $300-$400. You'd dwarf the library of an arm console limited to Android, even with emulation.
SBC?
Single Board Computer, like a raspberry pi or similar.
I want a new shield tv revision because the Arm A57 cores are extremely dated for emulation use.
Also would be nice for some of the more demanding android titles that has released since then.
I really hope the rumors they’re pulling the OLED out are wrong. I love playing in handheld and that screen would really pop with some added horsepower.
How else will they sell you the same system twice?
I really don‘t wanna go back to LCD, I hope there‘ll be a pro version or whatever they‘d call it
