No, the comparison is not valid at all.

The Wii had no shaders, SD resolutions, and 2001 era performance.  That's a major difference.  You are looking at Project Cafe having the same shaders, the same resolutiosn and only a 1-2 year performance difference.  It's like PS2 to Xbox.  Not Wii to PS3.


But do you know the specs?I don't,neither do you so I just said that it depends what is the plan for Cafe.Do they plan to make it with DX 10 and a little more powerful than PS3 with controllers with HD touch screen for 299$-349$ price point or do they want to make the best performance possible for a console with controllers as it's rumored for 499$.

I believe expecting GPU more powerful from 2-3 year old PC GPU is nothing insane.Especialy that it will cost to produce around 50-60$.Sony said they won't invest 2bilion$ fo developing another CPU or GPU.They will just go to Intel and Nvidia and make deal with them.I think we can expect the BD(not nothing new) so the costs of the drive will be 30$ not 150$ like when PS3 started so I believe if they will be targeting 400-449$ target price point than 130$ CPU and 130$ GPU is resonable and now it's more than enough to produce GTX580 so think how it will change in 1,5-2 years from now.


Neither Nintendo nor Sony use DirectX. Rumours have already given us possible specs that make Cafe much more powerful than PS3.

There will be no HD  screen. You are talking about old rumours and ignoring newer more reliable ones.

I do not believe we will get $500 consoles. Consoles before this gen launched at $300 or less.

It seems consoles are getting  a bit more expensive but all Sony and MS would get with $500 consoles are really slow starts because of consoles that are too expensive.

The most I expect are $400, maybe $450 if they're willing to push their luck.
