Acutally, the Nintendo 64 uses the Vr4300 series of chips from NEC.  I
think the new Nintendo will use a different (non-mips) processor, but
I'm not completely sure what the new one will be (when NEC announced
this, MIPS stock took a dive).  SGI has already spun out MIPS and has
been slowly reducing its stake in MIPS for some time now.

However, there is another gaming machine based on a 128bit MIPS design 
in the pipeline from, I think, Sony.
