    I wonder if they are sticking with NVIDIA for the GPU? With NV being swamped with AI and PC GPU demand, it would be interesting to see if they switch teams to AMD. The price would probably be much better…

    (The rumor is that an announcement of the 5 series GPUs is comming soon from NVIDIA. I heard that from Gamers Nexus, I think)

      the rumor was AMD made a hard pitch to get nintendo to switch sides, but couldnt offer a 10w performance target enough at a good price to make said jump.

      current speculation sits on Nvidia orin with some backported features on 8nm so Nintendo can sell console for profit (as all their consoles sold for profit besides the WiiU, which sold at a loss)
