It will dominate the huge awkward controller genre for sure!

Seriously though we don't even know its capabilities yet, so I would hold off before declaring domination.


What a silly post. This console isn't even going to come out for another year or two. It is already (before it even realeases) far outdated.. By the time it hits store shelves the tech will be an Antique. As for what genere it won't dominate... Sports games.. Sony/M$ franchises/FPS/any game that adults or teens take seriously. Gamers don't play Nintendo games to have a serious immersive experience.. They play it to have fun and be silly. This perception will not change, if anything Nintendo will get even more of a "kiddy" repuation due to this silly (and slightly ridiculous) tablet controller and relying on the Wii motes for extra controllers. With hardware that is 4 to 6 years behind the competition not to mention how far behind PC gaming they will be. They are shooting themselves in the foot. Isn't it funny that almost NO ONE, gaming publications such as GameInformer or any other respectable gaming site looks at the WiiU as a next gen console... It will be getting ports from the 360 and PS3 and even those aren't going to release till long after the PS/360 versions of the same game releases. This console is DoA. Point to the success of the NES... I point to the Gamecube.. Poin to the success of the Wii... I put to the WiiU. /thread. 


Since you're a total noob, I will point you to the GPU (graphics processing unit) of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

The 360 uses an ATI RADEON X1950 GPU clocked at 256MB while the PS3 uses a NVIDIA GEFORCE 7800 in SLI mode. That GPU also is clocked at 256MB.

The WiiU is using a custom AMD RADEON HD 4870 1GB. That alone crushes the 360 and PS3 GPUs COMBINED, considering it's about 6 generations above those GPUs.

Maybe you're a total moron, but come on, I will do the math for you:

MARIO HD + METROID HD + ZELDA HD + SUPER SMASH BROS. HD = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

You're welcome tool.
