That's the only way I can see a low $299 justified, because Nintendo cannot go weak on the power front. Their aim has to be, minimally speakingk PS2-esque, where all the multi-platforms go through Wii U...porting to the other consoles. 720 KineXt, PS4 will create powerhouses but the big N has to make sure that disadvantage only apply only to their exclusives. if that happens, then we'll see on equal graphical ground who would win on the Maddens, GTA, etc competing strictly with their unique method of play...Wii Universe, Microsoft KineXt, or PS4. |
Its already noted to have internal flash memory of some size plus the capablity to add an external HDD and/or SD card. So, yes it won't have a "sizeable HDD" and I'd bet around 4 to 8GB of internal flash.
However, I strongly think it will include a wiimote+ and nunchuk in the package along with a bundled game. Reasoning is it will increase its value for the mass consumer and provide some with their first WM+ device. Additionally, they are VERY cheap for Nintendo to make and provide along with the new pad.
The rest of the specs that are strongly rumored I have in my thread in my sig. It will be a really good jump from PS360 levels and relatively close to PS4/X720 when they release in 2013.
