Nvidia gets back into console chips with custom Tegra for Nintendo Switch

Nvidia is back in the game console race with a new chip that serves as the heart of the newly unveiled Nintendo Switch gaming device, which is a hybrid of a portable machine and a home console.

The Switch runs on a custom Tegra processor. Since these processors are for mobile devices, you can assume that the new Switch has mobile wireless data capabilities, either through Wi-Fi or 4G/LTE mobile data.
