    Hey Nvidia, can I also use an Xbox 360 controller to play games with a Tegra tablet, specifically the Transformer Prime?

    Wendell the 30 yr.old rich guy that still lives in his moms basement (he admitted it in the last video)

  4. Killerer says:

    Love NVIDIA. Always been a supporter and always been my choice for graphics. I can’t see that ever changing. Keep up the great work guys. It’s appreciated.

  5. ngough says:

    How in the world are they running an ethernet connection to the transformer prime? Does ICS support usb to ethernet adapters right out of the gate?

    @hylogibbon Ran out of space, but there is VNC compression systems out there that you can use that will make even the most basic hardware render the video over wireless G connections and above

  7. NTGam1ng says:

    @hylogibbon Even VNC could handle the same task, there are numerous internet cafes that run on a thin client system, if your host server was running Windows Server 2008 you could use RemoteFX and litterally share the resources of a single gpu, like a ATI6990 dual gpu or the nvidia equivalent, use a simple arm powered vnc only lan linux box or a tablet with a vnc app you could use a bluetooth keyboard/mouse and play just the same with multiple users at a time. This keynote is dumb

    @SexxxxxyParty Are you retarded? Cause I never said anything about them supporting SOPA.

    DAMN NVIDIA I BOUGHT A GTX 560TI LAST YEAR AND IM NEVER GOING TO BUY A NVIDIA PRODUCT UNTIL A CARD IN THE 700 SERIES RELEASES!

  10. bugz000 says:

    I used to like ATI – then i took Nvidia to the knee – it knocked some sense into me ;D GO NVIDIA!

    @HeroicHereticsHH3 Sopa is not gone its being Stalled for now to 19th January

    @HeroicHereticsHH3 Try search this title on youtube.
    NVIDIA Press Conference @ CES 2012 – Windows 8 on Tegra 3 tablet

  13. HeroicHereticsHH3 says:

    SOPA IS GONE. GET OVER YOURSELVES. I would however like to see Nvidia graphics in WINDOWS tablets.

  14. darnops says:

    @hylogibbon dude go check out project fiona by razor :) the tablet that can run PC games at max speed :D now thats really useful

  15. SexxxxxyParty says:

    @hylogibbon Are you retarded did you not just see them say that they don’t support SOPA

  16. hylogibbon says:

    Hey, hey dragon, lemme axe you a question.

  17. hylogibbon says:

    @NTGam1ng I’m not sure about this Splashtop program, but the RDP protocol is Windows-only, which I hate (I hate it because it works so much better than VNC).

  18. hylogibbon says:

    @seeafish Yes, technology is awesome. But freedom/privacy is more awesome.

  19. hylogibbon says:

    @darnops Not only do tablets not have the rendering capabilities of a home PC, but they have a completely different CPU architecture than a home PC (ARM vs x86_x64). Something like Skyrim (or even notepad.exe) would have to be rewritten to work with an ARM CPU. That’s why there is no way to simply run a .exe on a tablet right now.

  20. darnops says:

    The problem is why would i have my computer on and play it on my tablet…i get it ya its cool and you can play it on a small device but it would be better if i could actually bring it along that the whole point of a tablet right? bring it along on the bus and when youre on the go. it would be better if i could save it to the cloud and use it and download from the server would that be more useful.

  21. seeafish says:

    Could the comments regarding SOPA etc take that shit elsewhere? Let’s talk about the technology, cos it’s pretty awesome!

  22. NTGam1ng says:

    Maybe my knowledge is a little above the average user when it comes to these things, but why would you even need to use an nvidia tablet, nvidia gpu, nvidia sponsored app to do this? If you have any RDP client/app on a tablet regardless of gpu you CAN stream/play your games remotely without all these requirements, especially if you’re on a lan or wireless N connection,l if you knew what you were doing you could set up a Xen VGA pass system and remote in more tablets and share resources of a box.

  23. TheMastaGlazy says:

    @couer1911 I did research, this is what they say on their blog “NVIDIA wasn’t consulted by ESA in formulating their position on SOPA. Our position is this: we oppose piracy, as it hurts our game-developer partners. However, we do not support SOPA. We don’t believe it is the right solution to the problem. We remain committed to working to address this problem in a constructive and fair manner.”
    They arent choosing side’s, they dont oppose it nor support it, so you’re the idiot…

  24. 0Tijmen0 says:

    The irony of nvidia showing this… If this app worked very well, the need for faster cpu’s/gpu’s in tablets would be eliminated right? And nobody would buy over-the-top fast nvidia tegra’s.

  25. couer1911 says:

    @TheMastaGlazy Do some research idiot, they stated that they oppose it.
