Do you have a link confirming this?  I know that SMD went silent for a while after that leak, but nowhere have I seen that he lost his source or is no longer privy to their info.

Well his "source" got fired from Nintendo. That's a pretty good way to lose your info, beyond that though I doubt NOA regular joe staffers really know anything more about the NX than any of us do. 

NCL treats NOA like shit, and only gives info on a need to know basis and the people who get that info on a need to know basis aren't dumb enough to leak it, because you don't get that high up in Nintendo being loose with information in the first place. 

Beyond that SMD has never claimed to have a source for his AMD claims, he's basically just saying what he wants in the system and betting the farm that one of AMD's semi-custom wins must be for the NX. Which is unlikely to actually happen, because Nintendo doesn't give two farts about what people like SuperMetalDave think or want. You'll get Mario and Zelda and you will shut up and like it is basically what it is. 

Ok, I see some stuff about his source being fired now.  Too bad, I guess.

I know that SMD isn't claiming sources for his NX predictions but his logic is certainly sound, even if it is incorrect.  Also, we all know that Nintendo plays by its own rules, for better or worse, but your assumption that "you'll get Mario and Zelda and you will shut up and like it" is their current mindset is silly coming off of the WiiU.
