Then hopefully, they have a plan and a price that will make it fly off the shelves. Cause if they price it $300 in 2017 and its around x1 specs, then esssh. They really need a way to attract people but idk wut that is since third parties are probably not gonna bother again.

If Nintendo doesn't decide to go for expansive controller or an exotic architecture, with current tech I belive you can have better performance for less. I'm just looking at the new graphics cards AMD just announced, the RX460 will be in the 100-130$ range and it's already theorically more powerfull than a Ps4 (except the bandwidth).

Nintendo would  get it at maybe half that price so its very affordable for a modern and power efficient chip.  The portable will come later, and Im guessing would need to be at least 4x  weaker than the home con for reasonable  scaling. if home con nX is 2.5 tf, then 600+ gflop for the portable.  1080p home console, 540p (quarter HD) portable.
