Well according to Wiki, if people are leaning towards Orin NX (the compact version of the main Orin chip), it has the following as default

1024:8:32 (8, 1, 4)
Shader Processors : Ray tracing cores : Tensor Cores (SM count, GPCs, TPCs)

The full model has:
2048:16:64 (16, 2, 8)

What I read was that the Jetson Orin NX chipsets aren't actually smaller at all. They're full fat Orin chips with certain elements deactivated. So, this isn't necessarily going to be the exact chipset they are working with. It will be more customized in that regard. 

hmm interesting. its a pretty big performance range between the two, wonder what customisations Nintendo will do and wonder if they will target 10W or 15W.

I also wonder how battery tech and cooling tech has improved, as I haven't really kept up with the evolution in that space. I guess this will play a part in whether it is 10W or 15W
