Rumour – Nvidia’s Tegra to power next-gen DS

dsi14

Bright Side of News is rumouring that Nintendo is planning on using Nvidia’s Tegra tech to power the next DS – which is apparently due in late 2010.

As Engadget points out, “The primary source on this comes from Bright Side of News (which doesn’t have a big track record to judge by), who claims the debut is planned for late 2010 and conjectures that the device could either use the upcoming 40nm 2nd-gen Tegra tech, or the existing, tried-and-true 65nm chip.”

You be the judge. Hit the links.

That would mean better graphics I suppose?

2010 seems too early for a successor imo. What’s the rush?

BSN have a very dodgy record including being caught of plagiarism. I really wouldn’t believe their Nitendo Tegra claims unless someone else has a real source.
