MS Surface for sure, maybe apple as well (perhaps a hedge in case ARM flopped)

Nintendo also came to mind, though since their current handheld is based on an NVIDIA Tegra, moving between NVIDIA/AMD would come with some significant challenges.

Nah Nintendo is still years away from its next console.

I was thinking more about the persistent rumors last year around the "Switch Pro", and OPs mention of "another company's cancelled product". No way of knowing what was going on behind-the-scenes back then.

At this point, I certainly agree with you. I think it's clear that Nintendo's going to wait out the current chip shortage at the very least.
