Possibly but not in the first year; they'll have a fixed period of use for the part from nvidia as part of the contract for supply that they can't break even if for a different
part from the same supplier (in this case nvidia) based mainly on
Minimum order, lifetime use and overall pricing for the order.
Also I don't see them actually doing it, mainly because the release of the newer chip gives them wiggle room to renegotiate a cheaper price on tx1 when the minimum order is fulfilled and the contracts are updated, and lets face it, given the choice between higher profits and higher spec, Nintendo have to a fault gone with higher profits.
