| eva01beserk said: That's exactly why. Cuz why would nvidea want devs to optimize games for an architecture thats not relevant? They want their latest campers and tensor cores and dlss to be upfront in development. Its miss oportunity for them. Like amds succes can be atrubuted in some part to ps4 and x1. They became the primary target for all games. And now the consoles have the latest amd tech wich will push the latest tech even more. Nvidea needs Nintendo for that. They cant have amd dominate the console market. The main source of these rumors are being pushed by Moore law is dead channel. They have leak some big stuff before. I would say they are trust worthy. |
1: If Nvidia needs Nintendo why would they piss them off by stopping production of just the X1 units while still keeping manufacturing for much older units while the Switch is still at it's height (sales wise)? Nintendo would not want to work with them if they cut off the Switch prematurely.
2: Nvidia is still the most popular brand of GPU out there. That is where they push their technology. They've offered DLSS technology en masse for anyone who wants to adopt it (as long as they have Nvidia GPU's). In addition, things like AMD FSR are GPU agnostic, so they aren't missing out even if some games do optimize for FSR. In addition, developers aren't targeting PC games the same way they are targeting the console games (that is, optimize based upon specific uniform hardware). AMD isn't getting better optimizations, if they were we would see consistent better performance than NVidia GPU's, would we not?
3: You're basically suggesting that Nvidia, who doesn't want AMD to rule the console market, would prematurely cutoff the Switch, the one console stopping AMD from ruling the console market and a sure fire success, in order to force Nintendo to make a console with unknown success? I don't think so.
