They won't bring it out a major upgrade til Mid 13. The WiiU is the catch up system, not the next generation...


You'd have to be an idiot to believe that the company that sold the most consoles this gen and started a trend (motion controls) that the other two followed is making a 'catch-up' system.

i agree it is a catch up system. When the wii u releases it wil have just a little bit better specs and graphics than the ps360. Then if the ps4 and nextbox come out they will better hardware and graphics than the wii u. I imagine ps4 and nextbox will be CLOSE to pc graphics.

I don't know if you started gaming this gen but Nintendo's consoles have always been close to the others before the Wii.

An R770 GPU is more than just ' a little better' than PS360, especially since it will be customized.

That plus  the rumoured CPU, a nice amount of eDRAM and 1 - 1.5 GBs of system RAM would make the Wii-U a moderate jump over PS360 capable of much nicer graphics and other stuff.

Of course when PS4 and 720 launch a year after they will be more powerful but the gap will much, much smaller than Wii to PS360. Wii-U will actually be easy to port to.

You have a point, but i don't believe ps4 or nextbox will release in 2013 i think they will be mid 2014.  So they will have a two year better hardware. Plus i think MS and Sony always get the highest quality hardware parts. With both consoles now having the best sales in all of there years on the market.  I don't think MS or sony will be rushing out a new console yet nor will they be worrying over the wii u. Then on top of everything the wii u is rumored to be between $400-600. Also most of the wii u specs are just rumors and not concrete. So we'll just have to wait and see.  I don't really want to start a debate so im gonna call it quits after this.
