i think the Durango is going to be around 2 times more powerful than the WiiU, which is a lot imo
like PS2 vs Xbox
and we all remember how that ended up xD
seriously
its pretty clear the gap between the Msoft machine and Nintendo machine is not going to be that big this time.... |
could you please explain, why this is clear? Here is what we know or is rumored:
Wii U
- 2 GB RAM
- IBM Power 710 Express (4 cores) or 3 core version with 3.2GHz (maybe still 4 but with 4th dedicated to OS?)
- AMD 4000 series
Xbox Durango
- 6-8 GB RAM (according to this rumor)
- IBM Power7 with 6 cores @ 3.7GHz (previous rumor) or 8 cores (according to this rumor)
- AMD HD6550 in APU and/or AMD HD 7670 800MHz
or some other 7XXX GPU in the Steamroller APU.
That seems to be quite a big gap to me?!

Like you said, it seems like 720 will be around 8x current gen with a large amount of RAM with a good chunk for multimedia, multitasking, OS, etc.
PS4 leak said 4GB RAM and 1.8 TFLOP GPU.
And it appears WiiU will be around 3x/4x current gen with a GPU resembling the e6760.
Overall WiiU would be underpowered but not vastly so. The gap wouldn't be as anywhere as big as Wii to PS360 or PS360 to high end PCs.
