I was happy at some point, that arguing about system power is over considering current gen, or atleast for Wii. But what do i see... Ok, so it's wikipedia again, GC had some shared RAM between Gekko and Flipper, for them to coprocess each other. I think it works that way in the Wii also. Wii can use dual-layer discs, so storage capasity of its media is equal to 360. It's pretty shitty to compare specs between different architectures, it's also not about the performance, but also how it is used. Sports car with 100kW of power, has better performance than a truck with 400kW. But try to pull load of 20 tons with sports car with 400kW, when it's easy for a truck with 100kW.
