Still, Wii U won't be as powerful as nextbox or PS4, so I still think Wii U will be as much of an improvement on the PS3 and 360 and Wii was on the GCN and XB. and withing generations, there has always been major gaps in power, from Wii, to PS2/Dreamcast, to PS1, to the DS and 3DS, their has always been a cheapest/weakest system. Lucky for Nintendo, that system has always been the best selling (except in the case of Sega). |
Agreed, the Wii U won't be as powerful as nextbox or PS4, but I think the difference will be a little bigger with the PS3 and Xbox360, like PS2 vs Wii.
Now the other thing is that maybe the gap between this generation and the next is not going to be so big as before, just check the "leaked specs" of the PS4 and the difference between this and the PS3 is around 5x - 6x not the 10x - 12x that you found between the PS2 and PS3. Of course maybe this specs are of early development kits and the power can increase in the next ones, either because they need to compete with Microsoft or because they got better prices in more advanced hardware pieces.
