This doesn't sound good to me. There's a reason every other Android-based console has flopped.
Good read. The part where he says Nintendo would include 8GB of HBM memory to really pack a punch is something I see could happen for real.
I'd say they're likely to go with at least 6gb hbm instead of 8gb simply because android OS isn't so demanding on processing power like other OS.
Also, Nintendo don't normally make their games with heavy deep rich(mature) textures in their games. That said, they won't need the extra memory grunt.
They'll have to play to their strength more by focusing on what they do best, which is game play, and not rely on just visuals alone.
They'll build the NX based on what they can do talent wise.

I hope they get this right and it sales and performs really well. It's better for the gaming industry Nintendo is doing well.
maybe it will dual boot android with the NX true os..
if it runs android they already have the wiiu controller to use the android apps with, unless they are planning to make a new version of the gamepad
