They desperately need to cut the cord with PowerPC and not let ageing architecture hold them back next gen.

Last PowerISA version was released in 2014. PowerPC is anything but ageing.

Gaming has moved on to x86. That is what is standard now. Sticking with PPC already caused Wii U to have an underpowered CPU, it will do the same to their next system if they retain it.
