Wow its amazing the ability that you have to make things up out of thin air. Are you a project manager for nvidia or Nintendo? Do you have any legitimate information about how the and for how much were the Tegra chips sold to Nintendo? Do you have a magical ball that reveal things from the tech industry? Im sory but you are just speculating here.

Im not a "professional and student level subscribers.", but the info in his articles had a way of getting out and re-reported by other news sites or the forums would have threads talking about it.  So basically what Im saying and the opinions I have are from old rumors and what people said back then. 


also its stupid to assume that a project manager would say anything about the matter, on a forum. They would end up loseing their jobs, and or getting sued, most likely.  Typically what happends is someone in the techworld, that knows others in the techworld, but runs a news site talks to people, and keeps it anonymous, just saying "sources said so and so" (I assume).


Thats what semiacurate did, they had sources/moles tell them this stuff, and it was news worthy. He wrote about it.

The guy likes to speculate and isnt always right though, so hes not well liked, so often his "news" is just disreguarded.

However he was right about it being Nvidia Nintendo would use back in early May of 2016, and knew it was a normal tegra chip well in advance too.

Im assumeing his "sources" that talked about the deal and why nintendo picked them, is also right.

 

So no what I talk about above isnt from a "magic crystal ball" but from news articles explaining why nintendo picked nvidia.

 

Yeah, nice try buddy. Nowhere in those articles the author speaks about how Nvidia had a mythical warehouse with millions of Tegra chips and how they sold them dirt cheap to Nintendo. To me what you are talking if it is your opinion ok I respect that, but the fact that you are the way you present your post looks like you REALLY know what you are talking about when no one here knows exactly how the deal went. It is all speculations, speculations and more speculations dude.
