I've never said it was a beast, I do think they probably are waiting for 16nm FF+. As far as I know there are no 16nm FF+ processors on the market right now though it was promised for this year, my guess is that being well behind schedule and that is the real reason for the NX delay. I don't expect pixel perfect PS4 ports, but even the PS3/360 are capable of running some PS4 games like Far Cry 4 and Metal Gear Solid V. It's up to the developer, in Japan I'm going to guess many devs will be willing to put in the effort to retool even PS4 games for NX because it's likely going to be the market leader in Japan. I think the most sensible set up is for the NX to have one performance mode for portable/battery power, and another for TV/home play that is 2-4x the battery based performance. That would be a *real* hybrid device that can credibly perform on the road but also on a 50+ inch home television screen. How they do that, whether by having only part of the chip active in portable mode or if they have some tech off-loaded onto a home dock is up to their designers to figure out, they get paid a whole lot more money than I do to figure this stuff out (which is $0). Having said that, they make their own decisions and I'm buying a NX no matter what on day 1 and I will play my NX more than a PS4 or XBox or whatever because I prefer Nintendo software, doesn't matter how many giga/tera/jigaflops there are. |
you keep saying this and you keep being wrong, those are not PS4 xone games, those are PS360 ones that are upscaled for the 4 and 1
