Be aware that you'll be forced to share your GPS location with Google during the set-up, there's no way around it. You'll also need to do the setup with the Google Home app which requires you to set up a "Home", which is way overkill if all you want is a Chromecast.
Also, the Nvidia Shield is truly a lot better in terms of hardware and application support. Quite a lot of Chromecast "apps" are inferior to the Android TV versions that also run on the Shield.

Android buckets that into location because you can figure out a user's location by looking at nearby WiFi networks/Bluetooth beacons.
