iirc Tegra's Shield TV runs really hot for a "mobile" chip, so there was unfortunately no way we'd be seeing that kind of performance if Nintendo simply took the X1 and put it into a handheld. Does this mean that it's safe to assume that the Switch won't be boasting an X2 after all? Those numbers pretty much kill all hope of getting the vast majority of PS4/XB1 titles on Switch. It's a pity, cause there are a couple AAA titles that would work pretty well on handheld, I think.
Anyway, this still isn't a dealbreaker for me. At $250, if the game support is solid, which it should be, it's still worthwhile purchase for me. It's still a massive upgrade from the 3DS, and probably a significant jump from the Wii U as well, gigaflops be damned.
Oh yeah, you guys can also forget about VR with those specs. Get hyped for Switch 2.0!
