You've got the wrong end of the stick mate. It's a mouse mat.

I own a Shield TV Pro - the 500gb version
My view on it is
If you are just after an android box for streaming - get any other android TV box as they will all do what you want to do.
However if you are a gamer, get the Shield
Easily the most powerful gaming android TV box and can run anything android gaming based with ease, benchmarks are off the charts, beating most other boxes by quite some way.
Gamers who like retro stuff are in for a treat as if you have the Roms, you can play
Atari 2600, 5200, Lynx
Nintendo Nes, snes, n64, gamecube, which and everything else in-between
Sega Master system, megadrive to Dreamcast
Sony Ps1, Psp
mame for all the old arcade classics
Missed off quite a few more like Pc Engine and Neo geo
My 500gb is nearly full of just the retro stuff but in the shield store, you can get Half Life, Portal and quite a few more and if you want to pay £7.99 a month you can stream Pc games like Batman, Mad Max etc from Nvidia's mega Pcs
Easily the best home gaming console for a retro gamer.
This is why they hold their price so well

Didn't say it did have. Controller (IMO) is better than the remote anyway.

What the hell is this thing? Please don't tell me its an amazing console thing EDIT
ohhhh kay so yer I understand, I think this would be amazing! It's price is great! but kinda pointless if you have a gaming PC as Steam link is £40. Still I am loving the fact this could play the newest games ever by streaming direct to your TV, have I got the wrong end of it?

It's not pointless at all. It's a mix of awesome android TV box + streaming device (steam). Very fast and responsive with great customer support. I got the 16GB on last years deal with free remote. Best buy ever.
