The only thing I find "messed up" is the premise of the thread,
which questions the legitimacy of NVIDIA continuing exactly the same business that they have been in for years,
simply because Nintendo has now decided to use their technology for their own hybrid console.
I just don't see how this is different to, say, Toyota selling an engine to Lotus while not stopping selling Toyota cars.
Fanboys love to pretend how Nintendo is unique and special and everything,
but the fact of the matter is the basic tech is not unique, it is not technically advanced, it is downclock of lastgen technology.
The fact Nintendo can run such a business, should not impede the normal progression of gaming tech elsewhere in Shield 2.
And yes, obviously there is no technical reason Nintendo's games couldn't run at higher performance on Shield 2 (or even 1).
Hugely unlikely Nintendo will allow that, and with controlling e-store and cart infrastructure, they have means to achieve that.
Although to be honest, it seems plausible that people could hack together a solution that spoofs e-store/cart verification system.
Really, I'm not sure why Nintendo should be scared of that, it's not like consoles themselves are/should be source of profit.
If Nintendo can also sell games to Shield 2 owners who bought console that plays Nintendo games at higher peformance, WHY NOT?
