PS4 graphics aren't even near PC graphics. Please stop giving Sony money for their horrible console.It won't be near PS4 graphics. The Xbone isn't even near PS4 graphics.
Please stop giving these idiots money for their horrible consoles.

Still don't agree with this at all. I bought a 3DS because there's a whole bunch of games (mostly Atlus' stuff, none of the first party stuff interests me at all) which will never be on any other device. Phones still aren't remotely in the same league as hardware actually meant to play games on, even hardware as pathetic as what's in the 3DS. Without an analog stick, dpad, and real buttons you just can't do anything well, not even turn-based JRPGs as SE has shown repeatedly with its mobile ports of FF. The market is flooded with cash-grab gatcha games that all hope to be the next one that lures in the whales who spend thousands of dollars on that shit. I played Puzzles and Dragons, and still play stuff like Brave Exvius, but none of that is at all comparable to any of the games I have on my 3DS, especially not something like Zero Escape. Yes, they're profitable for the companies involved, especially games like PAD and Pokemon Go, but from my point of view as a consumer? Fuck all that.Same thing when it comes to mobile games compared against a 3ds.
I could be wrong, but AFAIK this isn't correct. While the CPU on both the 3DS and the Tegra are ARM11s, the GPU is not - it's a PICA200 in the 3DS. And the only reason the 3DS can play DS games is because they threw in an ARM9 chip the DS ran off of in the 3DS as well.Based on the rumor it's the same chip family, well, same chip instruction family(GB/DS/3DS) are all ARM, so is the Tegra.
I don't see any reason they couldn't have backwards compatibility down the line, if not at launch.
Except that all the rumors have this as being a sub-$300 device, and there is no evidence the X2 could cost that little. There's also no reason why Nvidia would burn some of their top lines on mass producing a chip they make dick on, rather than just selling Nintendo the excess X1 capacity they planned on using in Shields.Also, the NX could be using the Tegra X2 which is being revealed next month at Hot Chips. Reasoning behind this is the supposed NX dev kits are using actively cooled X1 chips now, which is obviously not feasible for a handheld device - which means the dev kits are overclocked to simulate a better GPU that's in production now.
Not saying they are, but one reason they might is to re-enter the console market. Both Sony and MS dropped them, so having their new chip powering Nintendo's new thing might be a reason to give them a deal on it.Except that all the rumors have this as being a sub-$300 device, and there is no evidence the X2 could cost that little.

The far more likely (and depressing) scenario is the NX simply overclocks when in its base for better frame rate/resolution/effects, and still won't be even in the same zip code (much less ballpark) as the XBone. The active cooling is just in there because the X1s in the NX will be produced on a better process and/or the base has a fan.
Now, a year down the line, will we see a real desktop NX, built with X2, and then a year or two after that will we see the New NX handheld running on X2, repeat? That's a far more interesting line of questioning.
