Also, Power 7 based CPUs have 4 threads per core, so if the Wii U has a tri-core, it'd have 12 threads, which would burn some rubber. |
True, tas far as I know the tesselation unit in the 360 has never been used. There were rumours of Forza using it but that was never confirmed and was just fanboy talk.
