  • In what sense? It's the same kind of chip yeah, but I don't think it'll be a smartphone or tablet as such...
    There have been some successful ports that apparently run really well and look nice:

    But just how powerful is the NX relatively? In terms of the capabilities of Tegra X1, consider this: Doom BFG Edition on Xbox 360 and PS3 runs at 720p60 with frame-rate drops. The same game running on the Shield Android TV micro-console, based on X1, hands in a near-flawless 1080p60 presentation. Trine 2 - another 720p30 game on Sony and Microsoft's last-gen consoles - operates at 1080p30 on Tegra X1. Typically speaking, OpenGL games port really well to Tegra X1, while DirectX ports, like Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance and the recently released Resident Evil 5, aren't so impressive.

    And there's talk that the NX could be Tegra X2, which would suggest games could look great. Considering distance to, and size of the screen and screen size, it wouldn't have to push many pixels to look good.

  • Just noting that there are other ecosystems which they can be a part of and succeed.
