Yeeaaaah... It's like the missed the point of Pascal architecture and fab node.
Which is not about the total performance, but of efficiency, about what power you get for X price Y thermal envelope.
(exactly why is color compression less relevant to mobile platform with limited memory bandwidth?)
IMHO Pascal is still likely, and honestly question should not be 20nm vs 14nm, but 14nm vs. 10nm.
10nm products from Samsung, NVIDIA partner, are launching early next year, Nintendo COULD go for that if they want.
(and it's not like they are timing for holiday launch, if they need to delay launch by 1 month, so be it)
I'm not saying that's likely, but 20nm instead of 14nm is ridiculous.
I don't think this will match PS4 but that still doesn't mean they won't use respectable technical solution.
