I don't agree with OP, but NVidia's Tegra _does_ power the Nintendo Switch. And if you don't think it's "one of the more popular modern consoles" you haven't seen it's sales numbers.
- vvanders 9y agoI was actually referring to the XBoxOne which uses an AMD GPU. In the mobile space Nvidia has been third to PowerVR and Adreno for a long time and has only recently started closing that gap. In that space mW/FLOP is almost as important as raw power.
- seabrookmx 8y agoOh I get it. I read it as "not in any one of the current consoles". XBox One and the PS4 use AMD CPU and GPU (basically modified AMD desktop chips with beefy on-die graphics). Nintendo's last gen console was PPC (from IBM) with an AMD GPU. So since 2012ish AMD has been killing it in the console space. NVidia needed that win with the Switch. Its a good fit for Tegra IMO.
