Nvidia talks a lot.

Exactly, but that changes when basically the Tegra line is only for Nintendo. Then Nintendo tells them "well we'd rather you didn't talk about this because everyone and their grandma will know this is for our next Switch" or whatever. Since Nintendo is basically their only vendor for mass produced Tegra chips, they likely are willing to respect that. 

Whatever the equivalent of Tegra X3 was supposed to be likely already exists inside Nvidia and Nintendo's R&D labs, Nvidia is simply not going to talk about it because Nintendo doesn't want them to. 

I still doubt NVIDIA is going to make a chip just for Nintendo. Their entire Tegra business has been shifting to automotive and high-end embedded.

My prediction is that Nintendo might use the TX2 for a souped-up Switch and that'll be the end of their partnership.
