Nintendo is not the CIA, the CIA actually leaks more, lol. Kidding aside all Nintendo has to say is please don't discuss our supply deals until we formally unveil our device first.

It's just a common business courtesy. Nintendo clearly has NDAs on all things NX related. AMD breaches this protocol because they are desperate as their business is in the shitter and they need something to placate their stockholders. Nvidia is in no such position.

I'm not saying whether or not Nintendo is using Nvidia or ATI but your rationale is flawed. Stockholders aren't random forum posters. They are investors who have put their money into a company. Their is an legal obligation to notify them of company activities. They don't have to know specifcs but it does have to be truthful information.

Nvidia's SoC business is the lowest it's been in years. If they had an upcoming project they'd be required to disclose the projected revenue to stockholders. An NDA would prevent them from telling who specifically that revenue would come from. On the flipside, we know AMD provided the GPU for both the Wii and Wii U. They know detailed specifications of both GPUs. Yet we still don't know the specifics because of an NDA. Too imply that AMD breaches their NDA's is ludicrous.
