Android TV?

I've got a NVidia Shield TV box with the joypad etc hooked up to a 1TB HD
It seems fairly easy in concept to allow many Android TV versions (built in to a load of newer TVs anyway and Chrome sticks prob would work as well) with the stipulation that the user has a joypad (the remotes would be really annoying to use)
As I understand all you have to do is mark the app as TV capable and support joypad support. This would essentially give you a Console like experience controlled by a pad
My Shield reports v 7.1.0 of Droid so it's fairly modern and you already demonstrated EE working on a Shield Tablet
IMHO it's worth a little exploration as the solution is likely simple (in theory) and would allow the addition of BG. BG2, IWD + PST to a large potential market
Similarly Fire 7 / Fire TV versions should be also fairly easy (I converted one of my apps to Fire 7 without issue)
A stretch though feasible is Apple TV once you have the iPad/Phone version working - I think this one's much more complex though
