Buy the 2019 triangle Shield controller for your older shield (about $60). It's amazing compared to the crap 2017 one.

The Deanston 12 is always around $80 at First Choice/Liquorland and sometimes in the 2 for $150. Worth the money.

Might be worth expanding the OS storage capacity with a cheap USB drive if you haven't already and running out of space.
