I will laugh my ass off if the NX matches the Neo and Nintendo uses that extra power to push polycount. Sony and Microsoft will likely need to make some "exclusive" games like the N3DS does in order to look as impressive. Not to mention some third parties might want to take advantage of the NX. Sure it can be a port of the other version, but exclusives would undoubtly be higher fidelity.

Of course this won't be happening, but it would be funny if it was. Hell, if it was 4.5 teraflops and a better CPU using Polaris or Zen then it would be a beast in comparison to the Scorpio and Neo. The Jaguar is kind of crappy and the 14nm would be cheaper, more powerful, and energy efficient. Imagine Breath of the Wild with significantly better physics and dynamic weather and onscreen objects. Sure, GPUs do most of that now. Granted, and Zen and Polaris might be "out there" if the Nvidia Pascal rumors are true, which I doubt.

If Nvidia is providing Nintendo with GPU's. They likely will be giving them good GPU's at a massive discount. With their optimization being a little crappy on PC right now. This would give them the much needed boost with developers so games will once again run better on Nvidia GPU's.

Microsoft isn't using Jaguar again... 

And Nvidia will kill Nintendo. They sell luxury products. Nintendo likes their consoles cheap. They are dead if they rely on Nvidia... 

 

Also... Hmmm... Let's see... The console God Howard requested or a leak from a weirdo?
