It seems nvidia might win the ninty contract if their tegra chip is reasonably priced. The tegra chip is based on geforce 9 series and if it is at the level of geforce 9800gt, then we might see a better graphic then ps3 since the ps3 rsx is based on geforce 7 series! If its performance is closer to 9300m then I'll say just forget about it. But I think most likely the graphic wouldnt be that jaw dropping since they have to take into consideration of battery life as well, in which is a major hold back for handheld devices since better graphic means more power drained.

The Tegra would be based on the Geforce 9 series, but the performance is not going to be anywhere near their graphic card equivalent, 9300m or not. It doesn't make sense that if Nvidia could manufacture SoCs with the processing power of a 9800GT our PCs wouldn't need dedicated graphics cards now, would we?
