The NES mini is more of a toy, rather than a proper console. I very much doubt it houses something as sophisticated as a tegra X1 at 60 bucks.

What in the world....

No.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

No, the Wii U is already the failed first NX production... the coming NX in 2017 will be the successful NX.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Holy crap. Do people have no idea what it takes to make a video game console? How on earth could someone actually think that the NES Classic could possibly be made of failed parts of a console in development? That doesn't compute at all.

you obviously didnt know it

The Tegra X1 itself costs more than the Classic NES.

nope it doesnt.

The way superior apple a9x chip is 25$ (made in 14nm).

The x1 is pretty old by now and manufacutred in 20nm.. costs are probl something like 15$ / chip.

I'm not gonna even bother the logic that went behind that statement...

i made threads about the nx might using an arm chip months/years ago. People said the same about this. Look where we are now.

Unfortunaly people now a days are to lazy to think in many cases. 



Maybe the Nes Classic is just the Wii minis they didn't sell. But I doubt there's anything to do with NX.

You do realize both of those came out in the second half of 2015?  

And the Tegra X1 easily has the more powerful GPU.

tegra was released q2 2015
