Nvidia raises Shield TV Pro price 50 percent citing memory cost surge

First reported

Ars Technica ran this on , a day before the other 2 sources picked it up.

  • Nvidia is raising the price of its Shield TV Pro streaming device from $199 to $299 starting October 2, citing increased component and memory costs across the industry.
  • The company discontinued the cheaper base Shield TV model, leaving only the Pro version available. Supply has been thin for months as manufacturing became uneconomical at the old price.
