Gaming video chip giant and would-be mobile player NVIDIA is teasing something on Twitter with the #GreenBox tag and a
pixelated image on its site. Given the company already has the
Shield gaming portable, a gaming tablet and a controller, its not much of a stretch to imagine the company doing a micro console to put Android games on the big screen.
With its mighty Tegra K1 graphics chip doing the driving, it could probably squash the current competition including the
PlayStation TV with its elderly Vita internals. Of course, it could just be the tablet and controller in one box, but that would be a very boring thing to tease.
UPDATE: After all the fuss, its only the tablet, controller and a collection of, admittedly fine, Valve games including Half-Life Episode 2, Portal and Half-Life.
Presumably it'll also let you stream games from your PC to the big screen if you have a suitable NVIDIA GPU. Will this do anything to kickstart micro console action, with games like Portal and Half Life converted for the format? That's probably not enough, and don't expect this to be Amazon-cheap - NVIDIA doesn't do cheap.
