Here’s a roundup of Rogers’ tweets:

Nintendo has said relatively little about what’s powering Switch. We know that NVIDIA is packing in a custom Tegra processor, but other than that, the big N has kept quiet. We only have rumors to go on such as the possibility of 4 GB of RAM being included.

At least one third-party developer appears to be pleased with what Nintendo is bringing to the table. Image & Form, developer of the SteamWorld series, told one fan on Twitter that Nintendo isn’t “skimping on power”. When asked further, the studio said that’s compared to previous home consoles.
