A new report has surfaced that says the Nintendo NX is going to have a similar kind of processing power as the Xbox One, making it a much better competition when it comes to the current generation of consoles. Dual Pixels says one of its sources, who has been incredibly reliable before has come to the site again with a ton of information. The source, named Geno has actually brought a ton of different rumors to the site but there are a couple that seem to have stuck out.

The process power and speed of the console is the most interesting of course because the Wii U came in with such disappointing numbers. When games were being developed, the Wii U was usually left off altogether. The Wii U is essentially first party only device but ff these new rumors can be believed, that won’t be the case with Nintendo’s newest endeavor.

The source went on to say that the tech layout for the NX is “almost identical” to the layout for the PS4 and Xbox One. Nintendo did this in order to make it easier for developers to port their titles to this console from the Xbox One and PS4. This is reportedly one of the reasons Nintendo has been so slow to send out developer kits, because it knew it wouldn’t be hard to develop on this platform. Of course, these are just rumors right along the lines of talk about the device including the Vulcan API. We’ll just have to see if the rumors come true.
