which is why it's very unlikely to be a tegra x1??? But we aren't going to know until Nvidia is either given the clear to tell us themselves, or till someone takes apart the system on March xxx

Yeah, hopefully it's not Tegra X1. Tegra X2 or P1 (whatever it's called, I've heard both names used for this new chipset) would give Switch better battery life and better performance than the old X1. January 12th can't come soon enough, Nintendo better actually allow some specs information to be posted that day. 

The best I think we can hope for is that Nintendo allows for Nvidia to release the specs after the event, but I doubt Nintendo will be direct (unfortunately). 

I literally can't see a reason for them not to use the x2, even the price excuse makes no sense.

That presentation blew hard.


I won't dare to comment on GeForce Now. That pricing is beyond outrageous.



Mass Effect was great, for the two seconds they showed it. Running on a standard 1080. Right... a standard 1080. Hmm, as if something's missing...


The new Shield? It has 4K HDR, that's nifty. Steam Link app? Handy, but still only a minor software addition. Google Assistant is nice. The Spot microphones are cool, 100% safe and secure, it's not like it records where you are in your house and what you're saying all the time, right? 200 dollar price is nice. But, how about the chip you're using in it? Nope? Alright...



Ah, self driving cars. Those are cool. They're making nice progress and all, we've seen this stuff before. Let's move on... Oh, there's more? Alright...


In all seriousness this was a horrible CES for nVidia. An hour and a half about self-driving cars, they started repeating themselves after half an hour, it was painful to listen to the same things they've mentioned so many times by now, yeah they partnered with Audi and that's cool, but that is NOT material for a final announcement. Such a letdown.


On the other hand, since they strangely only talked about Xavier (which is far from release) out of the ARM chips, clearly glossing over the Pascal chip used in the Shield TV 2, I think Nintendo is keeping them silent because the Switch event is so close, they aren't discussing the Switch or the chip because the Switch is going to use a similar chip. Then again nVidia could have simply been stupid and seriously thought that self-driving cars are a better topic, which I don't find that much of a stretch either.




I was kinda thinking they were about to announce some kind of micro-GPU that could play games that you'd plug into any ol' USB device before they started on about their cloud service.



Damn it. NV has grown so arrogant and lame? I mean, AMD has been owning them for the past year and it seems like this trend is going to continue in 2017. Poor Volta.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

Very good conference for those interested in AI and self driving cars, but very boring for gamers.

The streaming service isn't going to work with that ridiculous price, the new Shield is not that new as it keeps using the "old" Tegra X1 SoC (look at it at Nvidia's site) and there was no 1080Ti.

Thank God I didn't watch it.

$25 for 20 hours of gaming - highest tiers give you less time.

That price though..... Nvidia has lost it(s mind).

Imagine playing a rpg for 100hours or so,.... 125$ or more? <.<

Same if you play online multiplayer type games,.... this service is crazy over priced.



If someone is interested in the new Shield TV, Hexus is closing its Epic Giveaway with a competition to win one.

All you have to do is give them an e-mail and answer the simple question, that also confirms that it's using a Tegra X1.

Nothing !



Quick question, did they say anything about the switch or that can give us any info about it?



You know it deserves the GOTY.

The new shield TV is a rip off. Costs more than a PS4.
