The Nvidia Shield TV is two devices in one: an awesome high-end Android TV streaming box and an excellent gaming machine. And to put this wondrous box under more trees this year, Nvidia has dropped the price off the MSRP by $30 for both the gaming edition and the regular version through December 24Remove non-product link. To sweeten the deal, the sale coincides with Nvidia's latest 7.2 software update for the Shield TV, which brings support for Amazon Music in the U.S. Right now, you can pick up the Nvidia Shield TV Gaming Edition for $169 or the standard version for $149. Both versions include a remote with the Shield, but the Gaming edition adds a controller. There's also a third bundle that includes a Shield with a Samsung SmartThings Link for $190, $40 off the usual combined retail price.
