The only reason I'm a little hopeful is Nintendo has a new CEO and he might be more interested in the idea than the old CEO. The Nintendo Switch is a tablet-like console that’s powered by Nvidia’s Tegra graphics technology, and can plug into a TV to act like a home console, but it’s not coming out until March 2017.

Nintendo has been nothing but a disappointment with hardware performance since the Gamecube, so I shouldn't get my hopes up. Probably the same people that sted on the other companies for charging 60 for what essentially is a superior investment. I would like a Tegra X2 Switch from nVidia this year in the meantime, but I'm not holding my breath. A Samsung CPU/GPU combo with RDNA makes the most sense for the next gen Switch. Samsung has a new EUV foundry coming next year, and just licensed AMD RNDA architecture for their chip designs.
Honestly nVidia seems entirely uninterested in consoles. They are only selling at the $300 price point while their competitors sell 10s of millions of consoles for $400 or $500. Having tested this myself, the Shield TV box (and the tablet, although I. Nintendo absolutely needs a higher powered model. The Shield devices also have another trick up their sleeve one Nvidia isn’t likely to dig too deeply into: Emulation. If there is a lot of pent up demand for a more powerful Switch, having more market share will lead to more game sales, which leads to more money being made. A later iFixIt teardown of the final product confirmed 4GB of LPDDR4. The GPU cores vary between 768 MHz and 307.2 MHz depending upon whether the device is docked however, they can be boosted to 921 MHz and 420 MHz, respectively. The CPU cores are clocked at 1.020 GHz, as revealed by DigitalFoundry. This was later corroborated by an analysis on the console done by Tech Insights in March 2017.
NINTENDO SWITCH EMULATOR NVIDIA SHIELD ANDROID
"SoC would be an Nvidia Tegra X1 SoC with 4 ARM Cortex-A57 CPU cores and 4 ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores along with 256 Maxwell based CUDA GPU cores. The Nvidia Shield TV (Shield Android TV or Nvidia Shield 1) is an Android TV-based digital media player produced by Nvidia as part of its Shield brand of Android devices.First released in May 2015, the Shield was initially marketed by Nvidia as a microconsole, emphasizing its ability to play downloaded games and stream games from a compatible PC on a local. Is this chip enough of a power boost to justify reselling a console, and will you guys go out an buy it?
Does this mean a New Nintendo Switch will also appear with higher specs? Will it have the same "Tegra X1 T210" chip? Upon further inspection of the chip myself, the specs suggest that the frequency is twice as powerful although real world testing would be completely different. The last one had the exact same chip as the Nintendo Switch. A new Nvidia Shield model has been spotted, its more powerful than the last.
