A video shown on-stage during NVIDIA's press conference just unveiled "Project Shield," a gaming controller / portable console running the [just announced Tegra 4](http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/06/nvidia-tegra-4-official/). The controller looks an awful lot like a PlayStation 3 DualShock 3, albeit with an HD screen attached. NVIDIA's promising 38 hours of gaming out of the rechargeable lithium ion batteries built-in, a swanky audio system "on par with" jamboxes, and a full-on Android gaming experience. A micro SD sits next to an HDMI output and a standard eighth inch audio jack, directly below the customizable 5-inch "retinal display" touchscreen.
NVIDIA's hoping Shield will replace your average controller as well -- perhaps with that newly detailed Grid system? -- and company CEO Jen-Hsun Huang showed off its use in-tandem with a swanky LG 4K television on-stage, navigating through media without pause.
