I can assure you something, Café will be more powerful than Wii comparatively, and PS4/X720 will be less powerful than their precedents comparatively.

People, instead of debating this ad nauseam, I think we can take what Kynes said here to be the most realistic scenario.

Given that the Wii is a generation behind the PS3/360, and given Nintendo's traditional track record on home consoles (SNES, 64, Cube), they would now be developing a console on par with the PS4/720. In the track record, the Wii is the only exception, and it was for philosophical reasons, but now their strategy is shifting back to making rocking hardware performance-wise, so I think it would be fair to say we're looking for a Wii3 level of performance here, since Wii was essentially Gamecube 1.2 (i.e. you need to skip a gen for this Nintendo round, or think of it as if Wii2 never existed). In other words, next gen will, performance-wise, be very similar to last gen, but this time:

PS2 is played by the Nintendo Dream

GC/XBOX are played by PS4/720

And who won last time? A-there you go.

It's always great to act like the dreamcast never happened which is very similar to what Nintendo is doing.

DC? lol seriosly? DC didn't follow a leader in anything. DC was prices WAY above its competitors with no advantage or 3rd party support.

There is no comparison beyond a screen in the remote.... and even in that they are massively different.
