Probably doesn't hurt that the Tegra X1 is like 15x more powerful than the Vita chip. 

Yeah Vita is supposedly around 40 Gflops.

the NX with a Tegra X1, and hooked up to the TV (not on the go) would be like 12-13 times faster.

On the go, I doubt nintendo will have that much power in it.

You dont want a tablet useing 21watts alone on the mobile chip part (to get 500+ Gflops).

A die shrink to 16nm and using Pascal architecture (but same power aim) could bring that watt usage down considerably though. 

The Google Pixel C runs a Tegra X1 at roughly 80% clock in a portable form factor, shrink that to 16nm and you're probably at 100%. 

Not saying Nintendo will do that, but it wouldn't really surprise me if they did.
