If this is the case then cite where this was said by an executive - then we can talk.

And again, graphics are not a foot race, and it's not a matter of having to "catch up" over the course of two generations, which is still preposterous.

It's as preposterous as when I was called out by you and many Nintendo fans saying I believed the leaks about this system because that's what Nintendo needed to do. I seriously believe the WiiU is even more powerful than Nintendo has us believe, I believe they wanted to compete with the Ipad, they wanted the hardcore, and keep the casual. They are trying to grab all the market at once while catching up. I don't think Nintendo would ever be as behind as with the Wii ever again. 

Sadly, it's coming out at the wrong time. The sheer hype of the next xbox, PS4 next year will really hurt this system, I sense a more successful dreamcast. 

Your beliefs don't have any bearing on this conversation except where they are logically fallacious. The Wii being "behind" implies linearity of progress, which the Wii itself handily disproved.

Now, I'm going to assume that you're unable to cite your source for this "they've said it themselves" bit, yeah? In that case there's nothing more to say.

Reality says otherwise. The Wii feels 10 years old at 5 years. 

Gametrailers has  great interviews with Reggie. Go watch  them, I did.
