Hey everyone just ordered a Nvidia Shield Portable..so excited been wanting one since they were released, found one online for a good deal so I had to grab it..can’t wait for it to come!!

I’m also quite new to android have always been iOS user have tried android tho.

My questions are;

What are some of the first things I should download for it, i mostly think I’m going to use it for emulation if you could recommend which ones work best?

Best way to root it?

And lastly how would I like factory erase it back to new if need be, don’t really trust inputting passwords on Operating System that’s used.

Thanks everyone love you guys!!

there's no need to root it unless you really need it for something

For emulators you can use Retroarch (free) for almost everything. Other interesting emulators are Reicast for Dreamcast, MD.emu for Sega Genesis, Drastic for DS, Mupen64 for N64 and PPSSPP for PSP.

I highly recommend tell tale's games. Any if them! Tales from the Borderlands and the wolf aming us work sooo great on it! As well as portal and half life 2 for a nice puzzle experience or some classic early 2000s fps action!
