Is this because of the Android OS?

Not really. Android OS is fairly flexible.

But the word on the street is, nVidia has done allot of work customizing the software stack for Switch, leveraging Vulkan and optimizing it's drivers.

Plus the Switch will have games built for the hardware and not the entire platform, so developers can leverage the chips various strengths and weakness's to get the most out of it.

The Shield TV mostly just receives last generation ports, usually running at a higher resolution and framerate, it's really uninspiring.

Makes sense. This partnership with Nintendo is probably very valuable to NVidia so they'll want to help make sure the Switch is as good as it can be all things considered.

Thanks for the info.
