How likely is it that these specs hold true? I have a very hard time wrapping my head around the idea of Nintendo's Wii U being comparatively specced against the Xbox Durango and PS4. It has a more costly controller, is coming out a year earlier, and is launching at a competitive price. By all means the PS4 and Xbox Durango SHOULD be substantially more powerful... By the simple logic spinning in my head.

 

Can you share more enlightenment on your views?

Wii is the first home console where Nintendo was the least powerful system. (NES/SNES/N64/GC were all more powerful than what was currently on the market.)

You have no clue what controllers will be with Durango/PS4. New Kinect version or copy of tablet... you just don't know.

You have no clue what prices they will launch at.

There is no 'logic' that would dictate they would be more powerful than Wii U let alone "substantially" more powerful.

The rumors all point to three systems with comparable specs and probaby comparable prices launching within a year of each other.

But the Famicom/NES was weeker then the SEGA MKIII/Master System.
