Nvidia shield streaming device

How to play games on the nvidia shield? I am having a hard time with it i have logged into my account,but when i try to play a game it says waiting on a server. What doi do to be able to just play games? please help someone

If it’s GameStream they dropped support for it.

Go to your Shield’s settings>Apps>All Apps>Nvidia Games. Thn enable and follow the on screen prompts. You may need to register to login.

Make sure your controller is paired and charged.

I am not a gamer and have rarely ever used that feature. I do know this. Unless you use a paid upgrade. Then the downloading procedure is total BS. I have been downloading, aka, waiting in line since I posted the pic over an hour ago. I started out as #230 in line and am now as I type this down to 32 in line. Not worth it to me!

I am intending to play via the cloud, but there is an option to “Get” meaning download the game to your device. I am certain that would be much faster. However, I would strongly suggest having an external storage device in place.
