What's all this talk about Wii not being able to get an "arcade perfect" Tekken 6??

This ain't NES Double Dragon Vs. arcade Double Dragon or Genesis Street Fighter II Vs. arcade Street Fighter II.

Arcades are virtually out of business because consoles caught up to them about 10 years ago. In the 5th gen consoles were JUST UNDER arcades in bringing the complete experience. Framerates, sound effects, all that jazz. Remember all those PS1 games like Marvel Vs. Capcom & stuff like that?

The 6th gen killed the arcades. You got arcade perfect games straight on the console by then! This is why arcades had to come up with new ways of interaction like dancing games and karaoke games and stuff like that to differentiate. Most arcades went out of business the past 7 years. Nobody goes to them anymore when they can get virtually the same experience at home. No quarters to spend, just play play play until you beat it.

Soul Calibur II even on the PS2 was just as equal to an arcade version of the game. I saw Tekken 5 on my friend's PS2. Looked arcade quality to me. There was no more differences and even in the 4th gen consoles were close to catching up to arcades only missing minor elements.

Wii is NOT as powerful as a Gamecube or a PS2 or an XBox. It's MORE powerful than those systems. Weaker than XBox 360 & PS3 specs wise, yes, but not THAT much weaker. I would say Wii's 1/2 to 2/3 as strong as the competition's machines. If the 6th gen machines can pick up on arcade conversions then SURELY the 7th gen systems can.

If I didn't know any better I'd think people thought the Wii was as strong as the Colecovision or something!

I mean be for real, somebody.

First, arcade machines arent dead. Far from it actually.

Second. Dude, pass please and let me hit that. The Wii is roughly 2x more powerful than a Gamecube with is roughly 2/3rd the power of a x-box. That puts the Wii at about 25% more power than the original x-box. That puts the Wii at roughly a top of the line GeForce3. GeForce4. 50%. GeForce5. 25%. GeForce6. 12.5% GeForce 7. 6.75%

The Wii is roughly 1/20th the power of a PS3. not. 2/3rd.

Let's look at power consumption. PS3 consumes 217watts. Wii consumes under 17watts. The DVD drive, uses about 5 watts of that. That puts the Wii down to about 10watts of power, while the PS3 is still running around 200watts. That means the PS3 is drawing 20x more power for it's graphics. That also points to the 20x more power point. The 360 is basically the same too.

Dude, You are Crazy.
