Well I believe that a GTX 780M, which is the most powerful mobile card on the market is at something like half the card mentioned in the specs at ~2.3TFLOPS. Give it 3 or 4 years, plus the ability to push the card faster than in a laptop due to superior cooling of the console form factor and I think it would be doable, but I agree that it would be expensive. It would still be viable, but far more expensive than recent Nintendo consoles and I don't know if they want to abandon their place as the cheapest option in the market It's difficult to speculate on price though as the 780M doesn't seem to be available for purchase on its own |
Exactly. Within the next 3 - 4 years a 4.6 TF GPU in consoles is feasible but the cost would be enormous. PS4 and X1 GPUs arent even anywhere near that. If Nintendo sticks with their general strategy of cheaper parts I would think a 2 - 2.5 TF GPU would be much more likely in their next console. More powerful than the "last gen" but not a huge jump either
