    Am I allowed to express my buyers remorse on jumping on the EB games deal earlier for $250 without a game?

    • Being Askhole on 10/12/2018 - 15:02

      You can cancel/return EB Games item within 7 days if not yet opened

    Fingers crossed they won't sell out until I've nabbed one: have to wait until Friday (payday) 😎

    Shame EB Games is out of stock as I get an extra 10% discount through work 😢

    P.S. Thanks BA!

    Not for people with non HDR 4K TVs. This player can’t even convert and output HDR to SDR.

  • Flytothemoon on 10/12/2018 - 16:20

    any cheaper one without the controller now (want to use the xbox one)?

    • guslando on 10/12/2018 - 16:45

      You can get it for 207 without the controller and without a game at amazon AU.

      I would recommend this one from Techmall ebay though, as it comes with the controller and a game for an extra 40 dollars.

        Better to wait till it's $159 again. These deals pop up really often lately. Especially if you have XB1 controller or just don't want Odyssey.

        • RichardMelbourne on 10/12/2018 - 17:02

          I didn't even know you could use an Xbox One controller - thanks for mentioning that :)

          Obviously you wouldn't be able to use the voice control thing, as XB1 controllers don't have a mike (I just maybe can do it with headset, but…)

          Yeah I got it for $168 https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/417483 from Kogan + stacked it with Amex deal https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/412678 to make it $148 but still waiting for delivery — it's been nearly a month o_O

          • Magpye on 11/12/2018 - 00:01

            @fault: Brother, you might want to chase that up. I ordered one from the same deal with Kogan, though didn't use Amex, and got mine in a week.
            You don't want to find they've sent out all units for Christmas and have missed your order.

            • fault on 16/01/2019 - 08:07

              @Magpye: All good — it eventually came after Xmas + Kogan sent me a $20 voucher as well to apologise for the delay. Nice gesture.

      Same place for $183. Use the search in the original eBay discount link, which BA included.

  • letthiswork1 on 10/12/2018 - 16:39

    is there any benefit of getting this for watching Plex and Netflix if i already have it on my Smart TV?

    • Cunning Linguist on 10/12/2018 - 18:23

      If all you are using is Plex and Netflix and that's already natively available on your TV then I personally wouldn't bother, it's not going to offer anything extra, be less convenient and use more power.

      If you don't have an Android powered TV then this might give you more flexibility for other apps like Kodi which generally aren't natively available.

      • Ulysses31 on 10/12/2018 - 21:39

        I've thoroughly used two TV's with android/smart function, and they're both steaming turds of impatience & utter frustration. ~$60 mibox made everything better.

        I'm a 35 year veteran of pc games. But this still doesn't seem what I really need. I left controllers back with PS2, never to return.

        • Cunning Linguist on 10/12/2018 - 21:46

          heh i was the opposite - dedicated HTPC veteran for years, switched to mibox that was then just supeceded by convenience of a good Smart TV that runs 4k netflix and Plex without a hitch

    • A fish on 10/12/2018 - 21:37

      Can direct play 4k HDR remux with pgs subtitles. None of the tv clients can

    • Magpye on 11/12/2018 - 00:03

      The benefit is negligible as a Plex client. However, if you do not have a strong Plex server, this will fill that gap, and is cheaper than a NAS or HTPC

  • southaussiewithcosi on 10/12/2018 - 16:44
    +1

    This is rather expensive unless you want AC Odyssey and the controller right? It's been as low as $159 with just the remote.

    • scuderiarmani on 10/12/2018 - 19:17

      That was Nvidia discounting for black Friday

        I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume there'll be more deals as Christmas and New Year approaches.

  • lionelhutz on 10/12/2018 - 16:48

    Does anyone know if this thing will stream Kayo Sports?

    I read that Kayo only works with Chromecast Ultra. So does the Kayo app recognise this thing as a Chromecast Ultra or a regular Chromecast?

    I guess it is moot once Kayo's Android TV app comes out.

    • freoleo on 10/12/2018 - 16:51

      Kayo works with a normal chromecast, works with mine atleast

    • kirt on 10/12/2018 - 16:59

      Yeah you can cast Kayo to the Shield.

  • RichardMelbourne on 10/12/2018 - 17:05

    Can anyone recommend a good alternative for a remote, please? I currently use a Rii mini i28c which works pretty well with our current Android media box device.

    • netsurfer on 10/12/2018 - 20:09

      From nVidia Web site:

      Shield TV Pro, Shield TV Pro (2015), and Shield TV (2015) have an IR receiver.
      Shield TV (2017) does not have an IR reciever, however you can connect a USB IR Reciever to use your IR-based universal remote.
      The IR-based Logitech Harmony series of remotes are compatible with Shield TV Pro and Shield TV (2015) .

      This is the 2017 version.

    Not a bad price if you're looking to get ACO. I bought this with the pervious deal ( without the game) and I highly suggest this Android box. Hands down the best one I've ever used.

  • Circly on 10/12/2018 - 17:53

    Was thinking about it but then realised you can get an xbox one for cheaper.. Ie. $199 one s minecraft bundle.

    When you think of it that way it seems pricey??

    • bargainluvr on 10/12/2018 - 18:47

      Depends what you want to use it for. This is the best all-in-one home theatre media player. Outputs 4k, HDR, most (if not all) sound formats. Only doesn't have Dolby Vision and ATMOS from the Netflix app.

      Plus If your PC is up to scratch you can probably play the PC version of most Xbox games via gamestream.

  • serpserpserp on 10/12/2018 - 18:04

    "Free"

    Probably makes up at least $20 of the price compared to recent deals.

  • tel2g on 10/12/2018 - 18:40

    Good deal! Got one of the previous deals without a controller. After playing with it for a few weeks, I NEED THE CONTROLLER!
    Any ideas of a cool deal for the original Nvidia game controller? Much appreciate any help.

    • netsurfer on 10/12/2018 - 20:30
      +1

      The 2017 version - generally you won't get a good deal for it. The 2015 version - hard to find one and it's not as good. You might be better off getting an XB1 or PS4 controller when either is on special (or if you have a preference of one over the other - get the one you like).

      Sold my spare brand new nVidia Sheild controller (2015) on feeBay for $35 (inc. postage). Postage costed me $10. That's what I thought the 2015 version (brand new) was worth. Just an FYI so don't overspend on nVidia Sheild controller. Unfortunately, these with controller included packages make more sense if you want the controller.

    Their packaging is shocking. It might have been damaged during transit

  • G Wok on 10/12/2018 - 23:11

    With all these shield deals, is there going to be a new one with a better GPU released soon? 2018 hasn't had a refresh so perhaps 2019?

    • netsurfer on 11/12/2018 - 00:24

      Unlikely, the market for Android TV devices is too small. Also, Shield TV 2017, the actual device itself is a cost cutting version of the 2015 model. nVidia did release an improved controller.

    • A fish on 11/12/2018 - 07:26

    Anyone able to share which iview and sbs on demand apk work when side loaded? My experience is the most recent versions install but won't load up.

    Also: can side loaded apps have their shortcut on the main screen? At present, I need to browse apps via system menu to open side loaded versions…

    • Thiefsie on 14/12/2018 - 00:46

      Would love to know this also!

      • PennyWyze on 14/12/2018 - 01:40

        I can check and answer this within the next 24 hours. I can definitely say this, things have changed in the last month or so regarding sideloaded apps - for the better!. I got my shield about 3 weeks ago (Kogan deal, $228 incl controller if anyone's interested), watched every YouTube vid and instructional about getting chrome installed and accessing it (and other sideloaded apps) through another app (or alternatively using an app which builds the banner icon for it and puts it on the main screen), only to find that when I installed chrome, it put a banner shortcut on the main screen automatically! Since then I've installed/sideloaded 3 more apps, all of which had shortcuts made and able to be put on main screen! Strangely though haven't seen any videos or chat about this being a feature now?

  • Polak on 11/12/2018 - 14:04

      Not sure. You can sideload the Foxtel Now apk though. Note that it will only work with a Now account and not a normal foxtel account.

  • tekken on 13/12/2018 - 02:31

    For those who have purchased this, how soon do you need to claim the free game? The ebay listing says "Time: 10th Dec - 16th Dec" - does it mean you need to claim the game key before 16th Dec, or that you just need to purchase the bundle before 16th Dec? In either case, given that it is now 13th Dec, one might run into trouble with the claim?

  • PennyWyze on 14/12/2018 - 01:30

    Can someone tell me how this game is 'included'? I gather it's a download, but I can't find any info, from nvidia or game developer, saying how this is an android app or the like. It doesnt appear on the play store. I could only think it may be made available through Nvidia GeForce NOW, where you stream the whole game from Nvidia servers. But this isn't specified either.

    • markjg on 14/12/2018 - 15:06

      I got my code and I've tried it on Steam, Uplay, and Nvidia… all say invalid. I'm just waiting to hear back from them about it.

      • lawesomes on 14/12/2018 - 23:07

        Same issue.

        • markjg on 15/12/2018 - 23:09

          I got a message back and redeemed my code… you need to go to https://redeem.ubisoft.com/assassins-creed-odyssey-pc-specia…

          • PennyWyze on 17/12/2018 - 20:36

            @markjg: so you get it as a separate download (i.e. app) then? how big is it? big dent in your (less than after OS) 16gb space on the shield? (non-pro version).

            Separate question also - has anyone with a decent internet speed (i'm only on 25mb/s) got GeForce NOW working well? I've read so many good things about it, and i got it working for several games (heaps are free at the moment, must be a trial phase) but it's jittery as all heck. It gave me a warning my ping was inadequate, is this totally attributable to my crappy internet speed or because the servers are all US based? (Or more than likely, because of both)

            Thanks

  • Thiefsie on 18/12/2018 - 22:29

    I haven't got my code from them, after first sending them a photo of the serial on the box, as the device doesn't have a serial, and then sending them photos of the actual device… no word since.

    Anyone else having any luck?

    • Thiefsie on 21/12/2018 - 15:07

      All good, finally got it and redeemed on Uplay.
