What is the Channel selection like on the Android TV?
I assume it supports the basics a la Netflix / Hulu / Vudu / Amazon ?
Depends on what you build. Mine has Netflix, Amazon, Weather Channel and lots of others, but not HBO Go.

I have all of those except Vudu. In theory it supports any android app. Some apps do benefit from the airmouse vs the d pad like netflix. The aftermarket remote I have allows you to switch been mouse d pad on the fly.
-
I will say that the way the airmouse remote works requires a little learning curve. After a half hour or so it becomes very natural.

I got one with mine and it was weird at first. Interesting though.

Once you get used to it, It is hard to go back. Because you are able to navigate much faster using mouse and dpad at the same time.

Post back here after 2 months of usage.
Not quite two months of usage (about 6 weeks), but I wanted to report back before I forgot about this thread. The android TV has become our main media box on our tv. I bought another one to replace my firestick on our tv in our bedroom.
It is still running much faster than my firestick ever did, and all classic roms (Nes, SNES, gameboy, N64) run very smooth without issues. We are also playing through several android games such Xcom, KOTR, and more all of which run flawlessly. We are able to download Netflix and Amazon Prime videos offline to take with us when traveling to my parents house for the kids. Which is not possible with Firestick.
@IRJ I would like to get this setup for my daughter. (and me of course). Any game simulator apps you recommend for getting the classic Rom's setup on the android box?

I use john SNES and NES emulators. I also use Awe64 and reicast for Dreamcast games.
The beauty of android is that you have a plethora of free and paid emulators to choose from. Most consoles have at least 10 different emulators to buy.

All the emulators have both usb and Bluetooth support. Once you add a Bluetooth controller, you can map your own keys. Although, generally the default settings are pretty close to what you want. You can also use multiple controller by assigning a controller profile for each player.
-
Go with more built-in storage if possible. I have 8gb, but I wish I had 16gb or 32gb. The storage on the device is expandable via SD card. However, there is one big caveat. Apps are only able to read expandable memory not write to it.
Its not a deal breaker though, since there are some apps you can buy that can fool android into thinking built-in memory and expandable memory are all the same.
Emulators only need to read ROM files so that is fine for ROMs. You can also use a file manager to move files of course if you ever need to do so.

I mean the actual physical controller. Gamecube and Dreamcast specifically had very different button layouts. I guess you just buy the USB verrsions of those controllers? Would be awkward if you didn't I would think.

Do you remember how bad some of those controllers were? The n64 controller is the absolute worse, but some of the others are really bad too. Try holding a NES or even a SNES controller now. I actually bought USB NES and SNES controllers, but I hate them. I hate the fact that they are wired, but what I hate the most is how terrible they feel compared to modern controllers.
An additional benefit to using a modern controller is that you get to map extra buttons like quick save, quick loads, screenshot, etc. I beat Super Mario Kart the other day and was able to send my brother some bragging screenshots very easily because I have a button assigned to screenshot.

I find it much easier to use a comfortable, modern controller. You can change mapping for a specific game if you ever need to do so, but generally default works fine for me.

About 3 weeks ago I actually found my old Nintendo 64 with 3 controllers and only 1 of them worked...lol Those joysticks were such crap. I wasn't even able to play Blitz with my buddy.

All about gimic. No quality.

@scottalanmiller Just like the Nintendo Switch. It didn’t even come with a game. Also, for an extra controller it’s like $80 after tax. My daughter’s uncle got it for her for Christmas. I’m betting she’ll play with the Android box more as soon as it comes in.

Oh yeah. Everything since the N64 has been garbage based completely around gimmicks. Wii and WiiU were so awful. The Switch is just the guts of an Nvidia Shield in a lower quality container at double the price.
And the Shield is already quite old.
