I've stopped caring about these weird numbers, they make no sense to me lol

From what I've seen the wii U will provided a tiny graphical jump over the current systems, similar to ps2 vs gamecube. It will be a great platform for 1st party games and I think It'll get a load of Japanese 3rd party support.

So does that mean the WiiU is worse? can't understand this sorry, didn't pay much attention in my hardware class lol

yes...well at least that's what I understood from reading the discussion over at gaf

:/ so if this is not as good as the ps3/360 now then how far behind will it be when the nextbox and ps4 are out? or is this not really a big deal?

keep in mind I'm no tech guy..so zarx or gaf would be a better resource for you on the subject. From what I understand however this is pretty bad. If the cpu related rumors are also true then this system truly can be on par or maybe slightly more powerful than the ps360. PS4/720 won't have to do much in order to get a significant leap over this.

Also graphic comparisons are coming out now for games like batman. I saw one comparison image that...I hope is doctored to bait others, cuz it looked pretty bad for wiiu.

That batman on the wiiU :/

haha so shiny

the pic i saw was also for batman...so who knows maybe it's a bad port job from the devs

Well it is called "Armored Edition" for Wii U, so the shinier Batman makes sense on the Wii U. The Joker pic looks basically the same to me.

Well at least we are talking about 2GB... however it does not bode well for Nintendo if developer laziness is already making games look worse in comparison with PS360. Even if, say, Sony comes up a similar hardware as to make multiplats between the two, the Wii U would come out looking weaker than it should.

How much does it have of eDRAM? I ain't seeing it anywhere.

The rumor/semi-confirmed talk has been 32MB of eDRAM.
