The PS4 Pro was packaged in a larger enclosure with a higher wattage PSU to accommodate the increased thermals that accompany the increased processing power and power consumption.

Sony engineers have a proven track record of being able to miniaturize and streamline existing hardware designs and hardware refreshes; clearly they are very competent at this.

Suggesting that the NX, a portable system, can use the comparable hardware in a battery powered portable package is the equivalent of saying Nintendo engineers are magicians compared to Sony's.

Best industry estimates have the NX pegged at a base model $299 MSRP SKU and a premium bundle $399 MSRP SKU. So this suggests that Nintendo can sell comparable PS4 Pro hardware in a portable package with a high res display and battery for $100 less than the PS4 Pro, incidentally at a profit, as Nintendo does not take losses on their hardware as a part of their business model. So Nintendo's bean counters and OEM contract buyers are magicians as well.

Come on now.
