To be fair, most gaming news sites don't have much journalistic merit or intergirty to speak of considering a lot of them act like glorified advertisement wings for publishers and mouth pieces for groups attempting to push political agendas. Then again, this is drifting towards something off-topic.
In regards to this rumor, I don't think it's true but I won't lie; I like reading discussions on what the NX might be considering Nintendo has a lot riding on its success. Because of that, the portion relating to 'technical specs and powers similar to the Xbox One' makes this rumor seem dubious considering the fact that Nintendo knows they have to address the power issues consumers, publishers and developers have talked about in relation towards the Wii U's lack of support. Coming up with something 'on-par' with the Xbox One mid-gen gives off the impression that they're doing the bare minimum and runs the risk of upsetting Wii U owners considering that it might not be a big enough leap in power to justify the creation of a new console.
Then again, none of us know what the NX is going to be to begin with.
