And why would the gamers that prefer the big 3rd party titles switch to Nintendo if they already have a console that caters to them? By fall 2015-2016 the sports/racing/shooter/sandbox/western RPG crowds will be firmly established on the competitors consoles |
Well a AMD 7970 GPU which is $399.99 at the consumer level today in early 2014. That clocks in at 3.87 TFLOPs, which is more than the PS4 + X1 combined (1.8TFLOPS + 1.2 TFLOPS). That's obviously a basic breakdown, but truth is such a GPU would smoke a PS4 or X1 and probably will be a lot more affordable to Nintendo by late 2015.
