"To give you a sense, we expect the Nintendo Switch to be more than 1 teraflop in performance"

FP16 vs more common rating of FP32. Really this is a 500GF to 800GF device at most.

I would agree with you with FP16 but then in the full sentence he states

"To give you a sense, we expect the Nintendo Switch to be more than 1 teraflop in performance, but far less than the 6 teraflops that Microsoft is promising for Scorpio. The PS4 is around 1.8 teraflops, and it has much better memory bandwidth performance as well compared to the Switch."

So since he is comparing it to Scorpio and ps4 at FP32... I can't give him the benefit of doubt.
