If the rx480 is under 95w, guessing a cutdown of the new 470 would be under 75.  Take the disc drive out and Nintendo has a sleek and powerful console ala gamecube but will feature masculine colors this time.

Worst case if Nintendo went with the rx460, that would be the equivalent of Wii U to the previous gen consoles.  But rx470 and rx480 are legit solutions now for Nintendo to future proof and compete without breaking the bank vs4pro & Scorpio, & 480 performance would sit right in the middle..  No excuses now, this would be a terrible time to go all in on mobile tech for some convoluted hybrid solution.

For a hybrid if it reaches 2.5tf on console mode and like 1.25tf on mobile mode, then I would be happy as hell. I mean thats close to x1 performance for a handheald and even better than a wii u. No more than $300 guesses are around $250 then it wwwill still kick ass.

The hybrid rumors said that it wasn't even 1TF at full power. It would be closer to half that.
