Ps5 about to pass the switch people dint think it would happen for some odd reason.

To feed into rumors. But I kind if agree with the latest of nvidea droping the switch soc and that they made the last 30m and Nintendo have to stretch out that reserve untill the succesor comes. Nvidea seems to be forcing nintendos hand into releasing a succesor and they seem to want to force them to use their latest tech. Not 2 gen old tech at the time the switch released. Switch 2 could be a great generational leap if true. But sadly it means the current switch will barely reach the ps4 and maybe pass it. Wont beat the ps2 or ds like some hoped.

Nvidia will still be offering Jetson Nano Modules through 2025 (which utilizes the X1), and even the Tegra K1 (released 2014) will be available both in industrial and commercial variants until 2024. Why would Nvidia continue manufacturing X1 units for the Nano Modules, but not for the incredibly popular Switch? Furthermore, why would they continue to manufacture an even older chip vs. a newer chip that is currently part of the best selling video game console on the market? 

It simply doesn't make sense. Also, I don't think Nintendo would ever do another deal with Nvidia if they forced Nintendo to drop their current product and make a successor when they weren't ready. Nintendo is stubborn that way. They like it their way or the highway.
