Thanks superchunk. So yup looking like the Wii U has got a bump up to 2GB total RAM. Very respectable amount.
Pretty much perfectly what Nintendo should have been aiming for. Not going to break the bank expensive but a hefty increase over the 360/PS3.
Oh also from reading posts from insiders on Gaf it seems that the Wii U controller has had the screen bumped up to 6.5inches. Which would make sense as that is a very standard size.
