its tegra x1

Nvidia is providing the core technology that powers Nintendo's next generation NX console. Multiple sources have confirmed that the new machine is based around Nvidia's mobile-orientated Tegra processor, with development kits currently using the Tegra X1 chip found in the Shield Android TV console and the Google Pixel C tablet.

Maybe the X2 chips wasnt ready at the time? this could also be why nintendo delayed the NX?.

To make a $400 + console?.... I really, really doubt it.

They've already been touting about power NOT being their primary focus, so you already know the answer to whether they were holding out for a new chip.
