Nice troll :).

Nice detail on the "reveal". It was funny seeing him making that mistake over and over.

In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

I can't tell if people aren't understanding the satire, or if they're going along with it.

Anyways, thread of the year :P

I really don't see this happening, they basically gave whole their Shield experience to Nintendo including tech and architecture, it seem that Nvidia abonend Shield.
There was actually some infos they abandoned their next Shield tablet because deal with Nintendo on Switch.

Also, link is dead and I can't find anything online about this, very suspicious..

Yup, makes sense when you think of it. Nvidia can sell 10s of millions more switches than they could ever hope to sell any shield platform. Cause the switch is basically an Nvidia shield at heart.

Maybe with a strong industry partner they can? People should just give it a try before instantly dooming it.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
