Next Nintendo Handheld To Be Powered By NVIDIA's Tegra Chipset

Vigile writes "When you sell over 100 million handheld gaming systems, everyone wants to be involved in your success; just ask Nintendo. As a company with many different obstacles in its path, NVIDIA could definitely use the boost in revenues that would come from partnering with a company like Nintendo on a handheld system, and it looks like the Tegra processor will make that happen. The NVIDIA Tegra processor is an SoC that runs a set of ARM cores, a GeForce-based graphics core and an HD video processor capable of 1080p output that would definitely give the current Nintendo DS/DSi systems a performance boost in line with the Sony PSP. The 'Nintendo TS,' as it has been dubbed, will apparently be ready for a late winter 2010 release and should put a spark in the mobile gaming market and give Nintendo's developers the power to bring higher quality games to the platform."

    Buzzz.. WRONG!

    Chuck : Pretendo is planning on their next home console to only support 640x480 so why will this be any different? It is a fact that Microsoft and Sony give you 1080 while pretendo will always give you piss as in piss on you. Pretendo has never given a fuck about their developers. Of course you shitdot sheeple will continue to lock to Pretendo even if they repackage their crappy NES. Gene tell us what this fucktard will receive?

    Gene : A razor, so he not have to search for a razor when he slits his fucking wrists. All of his fucktarded fudgepacking shitdot sheeple butt buddies will receive one as well. Back to you chuck.

    Chuck : Only one other thing needs to be said to these fucktards Gene.

    Gene : I know what it is.

    Chuck and Gene : GO AHEAD! FUCKING FLAME AWAY OR WASTE YOUR GODDAMNED MOD POINTS FUCKTARED SHITDOT SHEEPLE!
