Has it occured it can only be a revision aka Slim XboxOne, for example?

Even so, this is very reaching. It could be about anything and AMD definitly doesn't have insider info over Nintendo's scheduale. This can also simply be that they expect sales of current consoles to rise next fall with further price drops. It can be a number of tgings tbh. This is so reaching that its funny.

Its almost certain that NX will use x86 or ARM from AMD. So they definitely know when Nintendo will launch console/s, but they cant say chip for Nintendo product that will be release in November because Nintendo didn't revealed NX yet.

 

Also this semi custom design win already was mentioned by AMD at end of 2014. What console manufacturer talked about new platform in 2014!? Just Nintendo.

"We would have at least one to two semi-custom design wins and I’m pleased to report that we have those design wins, the work to design the products that has already started, the contract assigned and those parts get introduced in 2016. We didn’t say at which space it is in. I’m not going to give too much detail. I’ll say that one is x86 and one is ARM, and atleast one will be on gaming, right. But that’s about as much as you going to get out me today, because the customers from the standpoint to be fair to them. It is their product. They launch it. They announce it and then just like the game console or the parts you find out that its AMD’s APU that’s been used in those products."
