It’s my birthday, and I want the upscaling, the single platform, the flexibility (sailing the high seas), but it’s soooo old. $200? IDK

The Shield TV should still dramatically outperform the chipset in the Nokia box. Shield will do everything it does and more, and runs a higher Android version.

In the context of a TV Streaming Box, the decoder itself is basically the only large factor… and as the site you provided shows, the nokia box supports h.265 4k@75hz, and 4k@30hz h.264. VP6/7 seem to be unlisted, so I can’t tell if that’s a mistake, or would be deferred to the CPU for decode. This ends up leaving the question which services are you wanting to stream, and which encoder are they using?
The CPU/GPU only need to be fast enough to smoothly run the UI, and other possible decompression tasks that aren’t h.264/h.265.
I’m not doubting that the shield TV would be a superior box. But just that I wouldn’t buy a used one, and for the money the Nokia box is a great box, well built until OP can decide to buy a new shield or at least wait until new shield is mentioned or released.
