Loking at this poll its seems lotsa people missed Eurogamer article about NX that later was confirmed buy multiple reliable sites.

So we have Eurogamers infos that saying NX is using Nvidia X1 chip, also those Eurogamer infos are confirmed by multiple reliable sites.
On other hand nothing point that NX using AMD, so at this point its almost certain NX will have Nvidia chip.

According to Yahoo Finance you are wrong. AMD has, according to this "won an order for Nintendo’s upcoming console, codenamed “NX.”" It's interesting how this say's console. All the Tegra articles make a mention about a handheld. These are two different sets of rumors for two different consoles which go under the same code name. ibtimes reported on recent job listings by NoA looking to market a Handheld device and another for a Console.

It seems like a lot of people are behind on the rumors. I think the question should be asking which member of the NX family will be using a GPU provided by whom? Right now, it's all speculation. However a lot of the rumors and reports contradict each other unless we take into the account the possibilities of multiple systems. At this point we start to see a clear picture.

This ^^^^^^^^^^ a thousand times THIS!!! There seem to be quite a few people here discarding the fact that Nintendo is hiring for two separate marketing positions - why would they do this if it were one console? There are very seemingly two separate NX devices, a console and a hybrid, we should probably look at all of the more recent rumors in full rather than dismissing certain pieces.

But guys, what if the code name NX is just Nintendo being lazy and using Nvidia X(insert 1 or 2 here) as the acronym for it? Maybe it was right in front of our faces all along. We just couldn't put the pieces together. Here is another thought though. What if the AMD chip is for the supplemental computing device that we have seen pop up in patents? Maybe while on the go, the thing runs just the NVidia chip, but then when plugged into the dock at home with the supplemental computing device (Which may BE the dock, despite the cloud talk we have seen as well) the more powerful GPU takes over and makes everything just that much more awesome? Just some crazy over the top thinking on my part.

Lastly, I think that the news outlets may be wrong about this detachable controllers so that two peeople can play thing. I think that they may have misinterpreted something that was reported to them, and the detachable parts are actually to make the controller customizable, not to break them off and have two completely separate controllers. Only time will tell, but everything seems to be pointing to the controller just being modular, no patents have come through showing the sides completely coming off. I wish there were a surprise reveal planned for Gamescom, but I fear we will have to wait until next month to learn anything about it. : /
