CE can be scaled to run on anything really. 3DS can do it. Unreal is the same way.

Yeah... Well as of now the game looks like graphical shit, so them using anything isn't impressive.

Not sure why simply using CE3 is impressive, even the PS3 and 360 were compatible with it :P

Still, it's a nice looking game. Perhaps not quite the jump i was expecting after a year and a half on the market, but with Nintendo's lack of graphical ambition we have to settle with the ambition of 3rd/2nd parties. Definitely going to keep an eye on this ^^ Haven't bought a Sonic game in year.

Mario Kart 8 looks better. And I like the look of Super Mario 3D World better as well. Though haven't seen enough footage yet, so might change.

I'm not talking purely visually, just graphically. From an artistic stand point Nintendo are incredibly skilled, which is why MK8 looks good. Graphically (the technical side of visuals) Nintendo lack any kind of ambition. I'm still amazed they haven't moved on from basic edge detection AA >.<

It's a shame really because the WiiU is capable of quite a bit, but it's the 1st party that tends to push their hardware (as Nintendo did with the N64, GC and Wii). If Nintendo don't push their hardware, the WiiU is never going to have a truly amazing looking a game.
