Wii U specs and performance matter, and Nintendo knows this

Are they? I mean, you have a 2d platformer and a game originally planned for Wii and they don't even output 1080p?
I see people defending this as, well....you know..it's hard, cut 'em some slack! Or, hey, casuals don't care about the difference in resolution! Well that's not taking HD seriously enough for me.

I was going to be impressed that you read through the whole thing, but then I realized you copies and paste the first sentence. Sort of.

They are bringing over a hell of a lot of ports from the HD consoles and jazzing them up a bit. Zombie U looks nice, and there are a lot of other games coming out that are looking pretty Niiice as well. I think for Nintendo they are taking it seriously, but the other guys are still sort of in a league of their own when it comes to dealing with Power.

I remember when Nintendo were top in power. Nes, Snes and N64. For me Nintendos best years. Mario 64, OOT, DKC, Perfect Dark, Super Metroid, Starfox, Starfox 64, 1080 Snowboarding, Waverace 64 all blew me away. And still imo not beaten by Ninty themselves to this day. I loved Nintendo then.
