It doesn't matter much, but if that rumors had been true, that would meant that Nintendo would be in a position where it could have a powerful enough handheld (and with good autonomy with that battery) and a home console as powerful as the PS4Pro.

And instead we'll get a device that's miles away from new consoles and that, if rumors are true, won't be a good handheld either.

I see stuff about a 13cm screen and 960x640 resolution, where did you see that the handheld would be more powerful than the Tegra NX? And where do you get the idea that they'd have a home consoles as powerful as the PS4 Pro?

I said that the handheld could have been powerful enough, not that it would be more powerful than the Tegra based NX.

And the notion that the home console could have been as powerful as the PS4Pro comes from the GPU mentioned both in the OP and the linked article in it: a 4.6 TFlops GPU based on the Hawaii powered R9 290X.
