You are comparing 3 unfinished games. Graphics could hit a turn like Watch Dogs or even get better on FF15. You dont know if Bayonetta 2/X will continue to maintain its form or get worse again like Watch Dogs.

bold: being nintendo exclusives, I can. FF 15 is the one that may get a downgrade.

No, no it can't Zero. Not without major downgrades. You're too obsessed with resolution. The PS4 and XBO each have 8GB or ram, while the WiiU only has 2GB. That isn't just going to hurt the graphics, it will affect level size, number of enemies on screen, AI intelligence, and so on.

Nope. and your RAM comparisson is shallow. like I said, it was discussed to hell and back.

Prove it. Show me some evidence that RAM limitiations aren't holding back WiiU games from getting next gen ports. 

I already did. why don't you answer the question: if it would take major downgrades, how is it possible that other games show similar graphics? you're just being stuborn.

as for the RAM: edram, scalability... the usual.

This is laughable. But no, it can't run on a wiiu, unless they downgrade it a lot. Yet would they waste resources like that for a platform that barely sells 3rd party games?! Not in Hell!



...Let the Sony Domination continue with the PS4...

Not without major downgrades, I also like your selection of Images to work in your favor.

"Not without major downgrades" people keep repeating this but non cgi footage of FF 15 disagrees. I didn't make any selection to work in my favor. in fact, most of wii u's images are in low quality. I could get many more to compare.

Oh my god, this is even worse than the resolution wars.

In what way?

The whole "my console can run the games your console can" and "the hardware difference is such and such" is even older than HD res wars and refuses to die and it's such a tired argument, it was the same with the constant bickering between 360 and PS3 fans all through the 7th gen too. This particular OP is especially meaningless since we all know that FFXV won't come to the Wii U in any case.

Ah now I understand. Fanboys always need to justify their console preferance over another though it's a psycological issue were they see any insult of their console of choice as a personal attack on them, so this silly fighting and bickering isn't going to give up because there fight is more important to them then the actual games and just enjoying what they have

Yeah but the internet—forums in particular—has really pushed fanboy wars more. I don't know if it was this bad in the 90s or the early 2000s. The anominity of it really pushed the bickering and constant attacks on each other.


That's true, it wasn't as bad back then because it wasn't as connected as we are today via the internet. You mostly got arguments and impressions from monthly publishings or your friends and their friends, odds are that your friends have pretty similar tastes though so the huge battles weren't so common. Now, you have people with polar opposite stances taking pot-shots at one another from halfway across the globe and the internet also provides easy access to information to back up arguments, but is simultaneously a portal to misinformation unless you know where to find credible material. Chaos ensues.

The internet is the perfect spawning ground for childish arguments and dispute, that said; vgchartz is still my favorite forum on the whole web since isn't nearly as bad as most other places.

You don't pick your images by whether you can find a comparable image that supports your point. You pick your images by finding the graphically most demanding pictures possible and then seeing if you can find anything comparable to support your point because if you want a port, direct or not, those demanding scenes will be the ones that are going to be problematic.

The first picture I'm guessing there is way more going on in the FFXV boss fight, since in the Bayonetta 2 gameplay all it looks like the boss does is a flail attack and based on Bayonetta 1 there is just gonna be a QTE to another stage in the boss fight.  Second set of pictures, one is gameplay one is cutscene.  Third set of pictures there is way more detail in FFXV environment than X environment, its not even comparable, and that other FFXV picture has to be the bluriest picture I have ever seen of the game, while you got the best X picture you could probably find.  

bold1: like the huge enviroments from X?

bold2: it's all ingame graphics, at least for X.

So why isn't it made for WiiU?



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Drop the rampaging act, Zero. You're only making this situation look more and more ridiculous.

It's. Not. Happening.

funny thing is that this thread isn't discussing if the game will come or not. it's about proving it could easily run on wii u.

I demand a 3DS version. After all 3DS has fancy schmacy shaders and a modern GPU too.
