While I find it uplifting that Emily Rogers embodies a firm belief in, and commitment towards, the information provided, I must assume the role of critical friend and suggest these details of NX may not be absolute in a designated entity, meaning development ongoing. The truth regarding mean/peak power ratio may or may not lie somewhere in the middle. Of course, the difficulty of comparing two different systems ought to be highligted, as in Emily's text, and access to as well as understanding of comprehensive profiling of main code routines etc., I deem necessary to with fairly good conscience be able to make these claims of a system's ability to "blow away" some competitors.
My own firm belief is that Nintendo has created this upcoming machine with the design and the needs of a system for the next decade. Making NX a dynamic and attractive environment for innovative business and investments in future solutions and technologies for a more competitive industry I believe is paramount. Furthermore, focus on openness to new technologies as well as exploration of synergies between proposed stationary and stationary/portable devices for long-term prosperity and security I believe are two key points of this project. Discussing exclusively raw numbers in terms of competitiveness I find neither important or unimportant, but instead would like to suggest there is more to the NX than just common technologies, and that the project exploits a new approach towards a harmonised, competitive and innovative development environment externally (third party developers) and internally (inhouse).
That Nintendo, considering the poor performance of Wii U in terms of sales as result of untimely hardware specifications together with a marketing profile that failed to attract consumers, would deploy a short-sighted and even narrow-minded way in developing NX I find unfathomable. Obviously, I cannot comment here in detail on the specifications on NX. But let me make some general remarks. Future success for Nintendo, primarily in the fiscal year starting April 01, 2017, won't be a symptom of a weak system. Nor will any conceivable infirmity be offset by supplemental devices of discretionary powers. That the hardware is very modern, as stated by Emily, I have no doubt about, but I am not fully inclined to agree on the proposed performance.
Furthermore, following the revelation of NX being absent from E3 2016, I have been hoping that certain individuals would display a bit more soundness in satiating the insatiable appetite for information about every single aspect of NX. A hope not realized. This isn't directed towards Emily Rogers in any way, but towards individuals with technical know-how. I know I may present myself as a bit gruff and recalcitrant on this matter, but I must once again stress that unwarranted disclosure of sensitive information ought to be prevented, not made real. Of course must illicit information outflows be accounted for as well, though Emily appears fairly confident with the legitimacy of the information provided to her.
I make no attempts to present myself as in possession of direct insider information related to NX. The above text represents my opinion, and my opinion alone.
