Who will provide the NX GPU?

We can only go on the information we have. Tegra X1 had Xbox 360 ports and struggled with them. Why? Because there is more to rendering games than just flops and bandwidth.

Yes and no. We need a thing called benchmarks to know for sure.
Even so... Both CPU's are Tablet-levels of performance and power cosumption.

Patents are the legal protections of an invention or "idea". Not some kind of proof of a certain implementation of an invention or idea.
Lots of patents never come to fruition and instead are simply retained for legal fights.

PC has been dealing with gaps like that for decades just fine.

You might even have less than 40 watts.
Tegra X1 can usually top out at around 10 watts of power... If you were more aggressive with binning, you might be able to do 5-7.5 watts.
That's not counting additional components like the Screen though.

With that said, even if a couple of Tegra X2's had the bandwidth for 1080P, graphically it will still fall short of the Playstation 4, like all things... There is more to graphics than just resolution. :P

This the Shield console running Doom 3 BFG Edition and a few other games, keep in mind the same game on the PS3/360 can't even maintain 720p and has big frame rate dips, it's a rock solid 1080p + 60 fps on the Shield.

I think the Pascal based Tegra with the better CPU setup + double the RAM bandwidth will also make considerable differences in performance as will Nintendo coding straight to the metal for the device. 

It doesn't have to really equal the PS4, it just has to get into the same ball park to make a SCD worthwhile I think. 

You should take a look at Resident Evil 5 and Metal Gear Solid Rising.

Keep in mind that Doom 3 BFG is unlikely taking full advantage of the 360, it's using an old game engine with enhancements, it's certainly not in the same league as a ton of other titles on the 360, that's for sure.

And let's be realistic... This is all last generation stuff, not current generation.
