LIKE THE WAVES IN THE OCEAN I WILL DIG IN YOUR FAT AND SEARCH FOR YOUR CLITORIS, BUT I WON'T SLAM WHALE
From the NVIDIA Blog:

"Nintendo Switch is powered by the performance of the custom Tegra processor. The high-efficiency scalable processor includes an NVIDIA GPU based on the same architecture as the world’s top-performing GeForce gaming graphics cards."

Looks like they're purposefully not saying if it's Maxwell or Pascal which is a bit worrying but maybe they want Nintendo to announce that first. Still hoping for Pascal.

Nobody is accusing you of being insane, just stupid, and I honestly doubt your coworker actually said that because it's also a really stupid thing to say (unless you're both part of the developmentally-disabled work outreach program Walmart does)

as about a dozen people in this thread have tried explaining to you, using lovely footage that makes your product look worse than it is is a really loving stupid thing to do when you're trying to showcase how great your product is

I like how all the millennials in that promotional video live in impossibly good homes and apartments and not in rat and mould infested hovels as normal millennials do.

Like that lady in the rooftop scene probably has an amazing job to be able to afford that good of an apartment in the city.

On the plus side, the best thing to fix it will be to "blow on it", taking us right back to NES times and it becomes a beautiful, full circle.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

The game goes in the portable part, right? I don't think the base has anything much more than an upscaler of some sort.

Is it even possible to tell the difference between 720 and 1080 on a 6" screen if you're not pressing your nose up against the glass?

The base has additional RAM and seemingly a second Tegra for some kind of SLI arrangement. But more importantly for Smash, the base has USB ports, which means Gamecube controllers, which are used by 80% of the competitive playerbase.
