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 It is already (before it even realeases) far outdated..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.

you realize the 4870 1gb is like 4 years old right, if nextbox/PS4 do what they always do they will have same or better PC hardware inside. the 7000 series ati card should come out this year or early next. but its not jst about hardware, its about developers utilizing it which has yet to be seen
the reason the PS3 was such a failure for the first 4 or so years of its launch was because it was a pain to make a game for ps3... devs didn't know how to utilize the ps3 power. this is also why 90% of multiplatform games look the same or better on 360. why remake a game just for ps3 when it will sell better on 360 anyways and the 360 version can be ported to ps3.
