"With the Wii Go you can show anyone your Wii! Show it to your friends and your coworkers! Show kids your Wii!"
Note of Interest: the current new 3DS ships with a PICA200 GPU made by DMP.
PICA200:
65 nm Single Core (max. clock frequency 400 MHz)
pixel performance: 800 Mpixel/s
400 Mpixel/s @100 MHz
1600 Mpixel/s @400 MHz
vertex performance: 15.3 Mpolygon/s at 200 Mhz
40Mtriangle/s @100 MHz
160Mtriangle/s @400 MHz
Anyone know how to translate these figures to something like a 750Ti?
And for what its worth the Wii U is currently using a Radeon 3850ish GPU.

That's a good thing! Means we might get something with some actual guts.
A possible Tegra X2 with 512 Pascal cores at a decent frequency should EASILY match the Xbone with its 768 GCN 1.0 SP's. Also keep in mind, Xbone only has 68GB/sec DDR3 memory interface.
From what I know, mobile systems are almost always memory hamstrung due to narrow interfaces that save power. Maybe it will have a clever eDRAM like the current Wii U has. Memory bandwidth is going to be crucial, especially for streaming onto full 1080P TV screens!
Here a 750ti with 640 Maxwell cores beats out a 7850 Pitcairn (almost exact same as PS4) with its 1024 GCN SP's. http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1589?vs=1662
750 TI has 86.4GB/sec, about 20% more than the Xbox One.

And then deflated over the next 3 days because nobody could figure out how the popularity of Pokemon Go translates to actual financial results. Nintendo is a goner. In 10 years they will be Pokemon company and go back to making playing cards like how they started.
^^Iphone ALONE, Android numbers are also huge, its the highest downloaded game on Android as well as Iphone.iPhone owners in the U.S. alone are spending approximately $1.6 million every single day. That makes Pokémon Go the top-grossing app in the $36.9 billion mobile-gaming sector and the entire iOS and Android app market.
It's always a bit tricky to make a direct comparison between two so different architectures, but the PICA200 is capable of 4.8 GFLOPS, whereas the 750 Ti is capable of 1306 GFLOPS, or in other words 272 times faster.
So although a lot of people here thinks going with Tegra X1 instead of X2 is a mistake, it's worth noting that even the Tegra X1 is ~100 times faster than the PICA200.
Yes Nintendo only gets about 30% of that, but its still huge!
Nintendo came out and literally told investors that Pokemon Go would not be material to their results.

Actually Nintendo probably gets significantly less than 30% of Pokemon GO profits.
It's true that they own roughly 30% of The Pokemon Company, however The Pokemon Company doesn't get 100% of the profits from Pokemon GO, they get whatever they are entitled to according to their licensing agreement with Niantic.
I have no idea what the exact licensing agreement looks like, but I would be surprised if The Pokemon Company gets more than a few percent of the profit from Pokemon GO (And Nintendo then gets 30% of these few percent).
Why in the HELL would they agree to that? Its perhaps their strongest IP getting released to the largest platform in the world..

Has anyone confirmed if or if not the "MAJOR" design tapeout in Japan. On the Samsung 28nm FDSOI node is for the Nintendo NX?
Who entertains their kids with Pokemon go? Pokemon go is awful for your small kids. What parent hands their kid a cell phone and says go play in traffic to "catch em all little Timmy."
Everyone I know has a cheapo $150 tablet with angry birds and a few other f2p mobile games on it for their kids. The kids literally sit there in a trance playing these games.
Nvidia is involved with this thing? That's just great. This will be the first console in history to cost $1,500.00.
Hey if Maxwell/Pascal makes it into a major console, maybe developers will keep optimizing for it after NVidia's driver team moves into the Volta office
Having a cartridge is by the far the best thing I've read about this console. Disks are stupid and take up a ton of space, plus it's clearly not yet time to do full digital distribution.
So the two of you are saying that we'll get NX games ported to the PC, or something to that effect :hmm:Doubtful since according to majority opinion based on this thread no one beside Nintendo will publish games for NX. :|
