I'm not sure of what you think shipping from one state or another has to do with your collection of sales tax, except that it gives you a NEXUS in both states. Since you have an established NEXUS in both states, I would think that you would be required to collect sales tax from buyers in both states and thus have to register to collect and remit Nevada sales tax.
However, I don't see that it would matter where the item ships from, but rather where it ships to. If the buyer is in California and the item ships from Nevada you would be required to collect the California sales tax and remit it to California. If the buyer is in Nevada and the item ships from California you would be required to collect Nevada sales tax and remit it to Nevada.
Of course, as I understand the Supreme Court's ruling, they have stated that they have the right to levy sales tax on items purchased over the Internet by their residents. However, the states that wish to do this need to pass legislation that actually requires online merchants to collect such a tax for them. So the high court's ruling didn't add any taxes, but rather re-stated the state's rights to levy such taxes.
There are quite a few states that have already levied such a tax, called a USE TAX, on their residents. Now it appears that the high court's ruling will allow state's to pass laws requiring merchants outside of their geographical boundaries to collect the tax for them. This will probably bring about much confusion as states try to pass the required legislation and merchants attempt to comply.
