x86 got interesting for consoles, after the companys (Sony & MS) realized that other CPU's are too expensive (just compare starting prices of XB360/PS3 vs XBOne/PS4), and they will most likely stick to that, which automatically rules out Nvidia. Also Nvidia didn't want to do consoles anymore because they thought it doesn't really pay off (which is absolutely true btw). The reason why it COULD pay off for AMD is just, that they gain the upper hand on graphics hardware meaning better optimizations on their stuff, meaning, Nvidia loses the performance war. But yeah that's a long shot, nobody denies that. Everything in these videos is rather theoretic, but interesting nonetheless and I wouldn't call it "unlikely", it has a pretty good chance to happen, with the Zen part being way more likely than Nvidia losing to AMD.
ARM? Too expensive? Nope.
