Ok, the responses are bolded

  • Custom Nvidia GPU chip No specs? useless info

Not to me, I think this is very important. Most of the rumors had been implying that Nintendo simply put an X1 in there. But one of the things that I like about Nintendo is that, for better or worse, they customize their hardware to the point where is uniquely theirs, sometimes almost alien. At least it keeps things interesting regardless of the specs which, incidentally, we may not know until like a year after release, when the chip is x-rayed and gaffers spent weeks analysing it.

I say useless info because she's not mentioning any feature or specs and because every console has a custom gpu, even if the gpu is based on an existing gpu.

Perfect. Play it at home then.

Yet the last console to use a Tegra based chip used an off the shelf part. Besides, the other 2 Nvidia console GPUs seem to be more minor teaks than actual customization, but I could be wrong. Theres precedents to be concerned.

Fair enough. I still have a hard time believing the screen size for the NX controller is the same as the WiiU one. I mean wouldnt that mean they have learned nothing and are releasing WiiU 2?

Well I guess this one is actually portable unlike the wiiU which u can't really take very far. So I get the premise provided it costs like $250 or less. I really hope they have like a 4-5 inch one for $150 tho. Would buy that in a heartbeat.
