lol, 3DS size in *thickness* only, what's being described is far larger than a 3DS. 

You guys need to understand what the Tegra X1 chip, there is no magic Nintendium that suddenly means Nintendo isn't bound by the same rules of thermal heat dissipation or they have some magical wacky battery that Miyamoto invented that runs on lollipop technology. 

The only tablet that uses the Tegra X1 is a full size 10-inch screen Google Pixel C. And even the Google Pixel C (with a monstrous 9000+ MaH battery, this is basically laptop size). This is the Google Pixel C:

And even *that* still can only run the Tegra X1 at 80% of its clock speed, otherwise it would overheat. 

There is no mobile chip technology that exists today that's going to give you Wii U+ graphical fidelty with adequete memory bandwidth for 3-4 hours in the casing size of a 3DS and still have space left over for a battery to actually run the device. It simply does not exist. 

Try again maybe in 3 years when the 10nm process is common place, even then I doubt it. 

 

And height, so it's only as tall as a 6.2" screen. In case you missed it, here it is again: they say NX (controllers detached) is 205x92x25 while 3DS XL is 156x93x22 

As for the rest of your post, tell that to letsplayvideogames who're giving these dimensions.
