[quote="ST-A-TUS"]If you stop, I'll continue. I've always thought that Nvidia was kinda clever with their 3D Vision... leading people to buy 3D Vision Ready Monitors with integrated emitter or just buying the kit (because let's be honest, the kit was a hook for people to buy Nvidia cards for at least the next 2 card upgrades), and certain games performing better with 3D Vision than AMD's 3D tech, etc. I dove in expecting to "have" to buy Nvidia cards to get that exceptional technology. At launch (3D Vision 1 kit), i was blown away...sort of still am with games that have been tweaked by you guys (Helix, Eqzitara, DHR, Mana, etc).
That said, like most 3D Vision owners, I'm not feeling a whole lot of TLC from Nvidia. All I hear about is how great the Shield is (which I absolutely don't care about) and how Nvidia's B2B side is blooming (Citrix & VGPU). The *ONLY* reason i haven't bought a 780GTX is that I'm still trying to make up my mind on whether I still want to pay extra for an Nvidia product and continue with 3D tech (which is clearly broken on almost every new game that comes out, making them unplayable in 3D)... or going the AMD route and invest the balance into a XHD Resolution screen.
TBH, I can't wait to see the final version of Oculus Rift.

[quote="birthright"]Nvidia is too busy trying to win the mobile market with their Tegra chips and are losing touch with the rest of their business. However I fail to see Tegra going anywhere since it has only a few temporary exclusives and it doesn't look much better than the competition, besides the Shield at $350 is like a watching a portable Titanic ready to hit a huge iceberg.
Right now I can only hope the recent news about xbox one supporting 3d [url]http://www.theverge.com/2013/5/23/4359788/xbox-one-3d-4k-content-support[/url] and being directx 11.1 from the get go (supposedly makes games 3d ready) could help some kind of 3d comeback. [/quote]
Yes, Nvidia are increasingly branching out to mobile (just like every other big tech company is), but I hardly think that releasing the most powerful and fully-featured GPUs for the fourth or fifth generation in a row qualifies as "losing touch with the rest of their business".
Also, Nvidia Shield sounds like a very smart move to me. I doubt anyone (including nvidia) is expecting it to take the world by storm or grab a huge market share, but it sounds like a very sensible little way for Nvidia to make some easy money on the side.
Up until now, companies like HTC, LG and Microsoft Surface have been making money from devices powered by Tegra. I guess Nvidia decided they want a bigger slice of that pie by selling Tegra devices themselves.
And why not? They can increase their market share with so little effort: Tegra devices already exist; the Android OS already exists; Android games already exist; A large Android gamer user base already exists; good gamepad designs already exist. All Nvidia have to do is add a gamepad to one of their own Tegra systems, and hey presto, they're in the console business, with very little effort and very little risk. I doubt they have to sell many units to make a profit
Sounds like easy money for Nvidia to me. And as a nice bonus, Shield's PC-linking capability gives gamers yet another reason to choose Nvidia GPUs for their PCs.
btw, that's great news about the xbox one.

They are updating driver profiles. Just not on notes.
Grid 2 / Remember Me both have profiles.
