I covered NVIDIA's earnings release yesterday but there are a few more interesting snippets in the earnings call. It was mostly about non-gaming topics as analyst are stunned by the growth NVIDIA is seeing in the AI and automotive sectors, but NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang did make some interesting comments about Nintendo's upcoming NX console.

Huang hinted everyone will be very surprised by the capabilities of the NX and he also said he foresees a relationship with Nintendo that will likely last "two decades":
I guess you could also say that Nintendo contributed a fair amount to that growth. And over the next – as you know, the Nintendo architecture and the company tends to stick with an architecture for a very long time. And so we've worked with them now for almost two years. Several hundred engineering years have gone into the development of this incredible game console. I really believe when everybody sees it and enjoy it, they're going be amazed by it. It's really like nothing they've ever played with before. And of course, the brand, their franchise and their game content is incredible. And so I think this is a relationship that will likely last two decades and I'm super excited about it.
