Considering how weak of a console the Xbox One is, along with the improvements made since 2012 and the supposed release time of 2016, there is no reason that it should be weaker. There is no reason they couldn't release a console- be it x86 or ARM based with an equivalent, or superior CPU setup, 8, 12 or 16GB of DDR4 or HBM and a GPU that is equivalent to the r9 280x .

But considering that we're talking about Nintendo... they probably will.

I think it depends more on power than cost for Nintendo. They are obsessed with small form-factors and low power-consumption. 


True, but by 2016, this shouldn't be too hard to accomplish. Also, 3d transistors will likely become prevalent allowing for the condensing of hardware- not to mention the rise of power vs the falling of electrical consumption, which is working in well... everyone's favor.
