Damn, Nvidia Shield Pro is kind of expensive, $200. And so are some of the NAS's I've seen pop up on google. Trying to get both sounds like this will end up being a long-term project over a couple paychecks lol.
Sometimes you can pick them up used for $100 or so. It really is the best smart TV device short of a mini PC. Basically it's responsive and "just works"
Well that is kind of the premium way to do it.
If you have a computer of some sort the cheap option is to just run a Plex or Jellyfin off that. Maybe get an external hard drive if you need more storage.
Then just get a cheap streaming device that has the Plex/Jellyfin apps. Even some TVs will support them natively.
You could potentially get everything up and run for free if you already have a computer with enough storage and a TV that supports the apps.
Sure you might be limited on some formats without some transcoding.
