Are we excited for the coming Google Assistant?

Wondering what you think? On a side note I gave the nexus player article on wikipedia some love.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexus_Player Deleted what I thought were exaggerations about discontinued. Still available at walmart.com. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Google-ASUS-Nexus-Player-Streaming-Media-Console-TV500I-Black/43172615

Don't hold your breath nvidias site still says "coming early 2017"

Yeah, I think it will be a huge boost for the platform.

Hopefully they have made some improvements considering how long it is taking.

Hell no. Pointless. Give me a decent youtube app and photos.

Nexus player was discontinued by Google. It's still supported but they're not producing anymore.

Walmart having stock has no bearing on whether it was discontinued or not.

Aquifel

Not particularly, no.

Much rather have the photos app, a native YouTube app, show all the apps that can be installed on the play store instead of the limited list (it's ridiculous that I can install apps using the desktop play website to the tv and they don't appear as available on the TV).

Assistent is a mostly US only improvement and I don't see many advantages given the lackluster state of Android TV is not the priority for me.
