Sounds a lot like the WiiU. You know, having a triple core with 1 more powereful core and two lesser ones. What did Iwata said again? Oh yes, "we are going to create a system that can absorb the Wii U architecture adequately." Also, theres nothing stopping Nvidia makin a custom design and this is Nintendo, history shows they only do custom (and weird).

I really hope that isnt true.

Its time to move past single and dual cores, and learn to multi thread stuff.

If nintendo goes with a single or dual core setup, they are shooting themselves in the foot.

Id honestly be happier if they just stuck with a GPU from AMD (since the other two are, for multiplats),

and then just got AMD to hook it up to the latest ARM cpu design from arm they could, and do so on 16nm FinFETs.

Yuck! Another P$4? No please. F* multiplats and let Nintendo do their thing their own way. Also, dual cores are multithread...
