Ejere af Nvidia Shield-boksen kan nu bruge PlayStation 5's DualSense og Xbox Series X/S controllere til spil på Android og GeForce Now.

Forbedret controller-support
Nvidia udbygger og forbedrer fortsat Shield-boksen gennem software-opdatering. Seneste opdatering (version 8.2.2) er netop frigivet med forbedret support for spil-controllere.

- "Connect next-gen console controllers to your Shield and enjoy playing Android or GeForce Now gaming with your favorite controller. To begin, start Bluetooth pairing on your Shield and start pairing mode on your controller," sagde Nvidia.

For at sætte Sonys DualSense i parringstilstand skal man holde PlayStation og Share knapperne nede indtil lyset blinker blåt. For at sætte Xbox Series X/S controllere i parringstilstand skal man holde parring-knappen nede indtil Xbox-knappen begynder at blinke.

Efter opdateringen kan Shield desuden opsættes til hjemme-automatisering via Control4. Herudover indeholder den Android-sikkerhedspakken fra december 2020, forbedret infrarød-support sammen med receivere fra Denon samt diverse fejlrettelser.
