The Nvidia Shield TV Pro, a streaming device first launched in 2019, now retails for $299.99, an increase of $100, according to Ars Technica.
The report attributes the price increase to factors related to artificial intelligence demand, though it does not detail the specific supply chain or component dynamics behind the hike.
The Shield TV Pro has remained on the market for roughly seven years since its original launch, making the price change notable for a device of its age.
Rising AI-related demand has been linked in various reports to broader pressure on hardware components, which can in turn affect pricing across unrelated consumer electronics categories.
Nvidia has not been reported to have commented further on the pricing change for the device at this time.
