At CES in Las Vegas today, nVidia announced 'Project SHIELD', it's essentially a Tegra 4 powered mobile gaming machine running Android though it has a added ability to stream games from your own PC over Wi-fi. Oddly, it looks like an Xbox 360 controller with a 5 inch 720p screen bolted on.

"Project SHIELD was created by NVIDIA engineers who love to game and imagined a new way to play," said Jen-Hsun Huang, co-founder and chief executive officer at NVIDIA. "We were inspired by a vision that the rise of mobile and cloud technologies will free us from our boxes, letting us game anywhere, on any screen. We imagined a device that would do for games what the iPod and Kindle have done for music and books, letting us play in a cool new way. We hope other gamers love SHIELD as much as we do."
