I defintely think that's a misquote while it was being translated and there's an extra "0" on the end of those.
There are $1,000 GPUs out now that still aren't 17 TFLOPS. Not happening in a $300 - $400 console / handheld tablet-console hybrid.
10x Vita, and 5x Wii U = 512 GFLOP, and 1.76 TFLOPS. Well mobile hardware in smartphones and tablets are leaving the 300 GFLOP range and hitting the 400 - 500+ range in 2016 devices, so that lines up perfectly with the 10x Vita. And 5x Wii U is 1.76 TFLOPS aka 0.08 TFLOPS less than PS4, but the difference is negligible in overall performance.
Those specs make much more sense, and it means Nintendo is making a "high-end" portable and a "current-gen comparable" console, both of which should retail for around $250 at launch, which is a much better set-up for them, and a much easier buy for their consumers.
