| Captain_Yuri said: Certainly it is an achievement and this is leagues ahead of both the 3ds and the Vita as far as handhelds go in terms of power but ps4 levels is quite a lot to achieve. While it is true that ps4 does use pretty weak parts, it still has better cooling and is able to draw more power than the NX ever will be able to. When you take that into consideration as well as drawing too much power will also kill the battery life, it suddenly becomes harder for the NX to reach those levels even with a lot more efficient architecture. If it weren't for those limitations, I would say it has a shot but considering those, I am skeptical. At best, it will be with x1 imo |
On Battery life Nintendo have stated NS is a home console first and foremost so long battery life may not exactly be their priority, this also points to the high possibility that a dedicated 3DS successor is on the way to fill that role properly. I wouldn't be surprised if NS has a recharge cable of some sort for play away from home and if the platform in portable mode simply scales down to a lower resolution than when it's docked. Also note (not aimed at you) it's a customized Tegra based chip in it not one of the actual Tegra models.
