Millenium said: Hmm, hopefully he's just talking in relative terms, if nothing else, especially with the extra controller it's important that it has at least 1.5-2GB of ram. If it just has 512mb-1GB, they're really shooting themselves in the foot. Hopefully the final console build will be at least 3x4 as 'powerful' as the X360-PS3. As for the controller, I'm not really a fan, but it does have potential for games such as RTS's. |
This. If they are avaricious with RAM, Wii U could be able to receive ports of PS3/XB360 multiplats and of the least demanding future PC games, but ports of the most demanding PS4, XB720 and PC games could be impossible or require intensive and expensive rewriting. OTOH every 3rd party Wii U game that won't rely on the tablet in an unreplaceable way will be readily portable to the competitors. The end result will be that Wii U will end up in the same situation as Wii for what concerns 3rd party games.
