1. Not only did Nintendo say that demo was something quickly put together for E3, but  how can you tell what something is running on just by looking at the game/demo?

Because even a bad tech demo mayde by me runs better than Zelda HD on a HD 4890... today we have the HD 6970... two generations ahead  but the HD 4890 is high-end yet and more powerful than mid-end HD 6xxx.

Zelda HD Demo runs 30 fps (with a lot of framedrop) without AA... and not even running in 1080p... the HD 4890 do that running Uncharted 2 together.

When 360 was released, it's GPU was much more current to other GPU's than HD 4890 is now. 360 used at the time highest-end GPU and very few PC's had that good GPU. R500-based GPU's on PC were released at the same time as 360 was released. So, 360 used CURRENT generation at the time and 4890 is two generations behind. 4890 is dirt cheap compared to GPU 360 used in 2005. So why is it hard to believe that Wii U would use 4890?
