Hey, do any of you PC guys have any feelings about the upcoming nVidia Shield console?

As most of you may know, I'm not really a PC gamer. My interest in the nVidia console (or any device that would do the following) would be to leave emulators hooked up to the tv. As of now, I have to connect my craptop to the tv everytime I play old, discontinued games. I'm not very interested in playing current PC games (which is why I'm not building a gaming rig). Have any of you heard anything about devices like this, and if they're worth looking at if you main motivation is older games?

thanks for any opinions, warnings, flame, brownies, whatever,
