Yeaa that is why I am holding my final judgement until it comes out. There is this thing going on atm where say the CPU might be as powerful as the ones inside the x1 (not that it means much since those are weak sauce).

Note: Without much research and actual reading about it cause I am too lazy, I came across this from either reddit or neogaf. So don't kill/quote me on this.

More or less, the cpu is very close to the one from ps4/x1, just that the ps4/x1 has two of them. And that is against the A15s from Nvidia which is super old by today's standards since they released in 2013. Now of course, the cpus inside the ps4/x1 havn't changed for obvious reasons but according to Nvidia's roadmap, if they are actually using the lastest and greatest inside the NS, it should be A57s + Denver. Which should be more or less on par with the x1/ps4 cpu or even beat them. The issue is of course, the GPU since we know nothing about them.

Still, that is if they are using it and its not like a low powered version specifically for mobile and has a lot of ifs and uhhs. Their latest and greatest are meant for cars and not really handhelds but it is the only one with Pascal and they can certainly modify it. So we shall see though.

Too many questions, to little answers

you say this, but skyrim (the old version) runs like shit on the ps3, and this is a remaster with a new engine, not just an old game from 2011.

uhhhh.... a handheld thats on par with xb1? say bye to battery life?

seriously... have some logic.

Skyrim inside a cartridge on a Nintendo hybrid, 5 years ago I would've said

seriously... have some logic.

I heard it easy for developers to port their games on it now compared to the Wii U.

Ugh.

There are realities with die size, architecture, process node, power consumption/heat dissipation, memory bandwidth, and bus/PCB fundamentals that are basically inescapable.

At 14nm, regardless of Tegra revision, and 20W being a pipe dream (more likely 8-12W, otherwise heat would be obscene, and the battery would die rapidly), this thing will come out about 1/3rd to 1/2 of Xbox One performance with some significant drawbacks such as memory bandwidth.

What does this mean? On the tablet's 720P display, you SHOULD be able to run ports of X1/PS4 titles at 540P for demanding titles, and 720P for less demanding titles, upscaling when necessary. Because of low memory size, textures will probably take a hit as well should they try to do major multiplats.

This will be MORE than fine for a handheld. Undoubtedly the best-looking handheld gaming ever made. However, if a game like BF1 is ~50GB, how does that fit on their carts? If there is a 20GB DLC, will that be feasible?

And more importantly, with specs like these, AAA multiplats will look terrible on a big screen. 540P upscaled to 1080p? Ugh.

Nintendo 1st party games like Zelda/Kart/Mario? Well yeah, those will look fine, somewhere around WiiU power or close to it is enough for those games.

Smart business decision. People need to slow down the hype train before it derails.

lol what? Uncharted 4 can be running on a Nintendo handheld 5 years from now for all I care.. Totally irrevelant. 

Let's please you nintendo fans and let's say magically, Switch is as powerful as XB1. How did it manage to lose support from the biggest 2 upcoming games in Mass Effect 4 and Red Dead 2? 

this was in august tho, Bethesda confirms a partnership 2 days ago.

Thats basically just PR. The Switch needs to not only be at least somewhat on par with the original current gen consoles but also sell well. If not then you can bet your ass they won't be sticking around.
