NVIDIA follows up last month’s Shield TV hotfix with an update that won’t break your apps

The fact that really high-end Android TV boxes never caught on is something of a small tragedy. We could be living in a world with Android-based gaming consoles in the living room giving the latest from Nintendo and Sony a run for their money, all while still offering access to our favorite streaming services. Alas, budget-priced devices have clearly triumphed. As we lament what could have been, we’re taking a look at a rare update for one of the few product lines to even make inroads upon that dream, with the release of the latest NVIDIA Shield TV software.

For devices that date back to last decade, NVIDIA’s Shield TV hardware has been on the receiving end of a few notable software updates over the past few months. Just a few weeks back we got a hotfix update that patched some bugs, but had a few important limitations (like breaking Disney+). This week NVIDIA starts moving us forward to a much more palatable build, with the release of the Shield Experience Upgrade 9.2.1 for Shield TV and Shield TV Pro devices.
