Disappointed with Wii U's ram. 1.5gb seemed low already... now 1gb for games? I refuse to believe people honestly think this is enough to get ports that aren't significantly dumbed down. We all seem to think 4gb is most likely for orbis/durango right? So games developed with 3-4gb of ram in mind (assuming some will be dedicated to OS) aren't going to struggle with 1gb?

PS3 and 360 have the same amount of ram, yet just the allocation of it on PS3 causes issues, so how is 4x less ram not going to cause serious issues?

Don't wanna express this opinion on the ninty section because if I do then I'm of course a troll or "doomsayer" and what not. I'm not shitting on the Wii U, it's a legit concern.

It's a very big concern.  It's not without its solutions, but if the devs don't wanna make that solution ports are either not gonna happen, or run into issues.  Though it all depends on what MIcrosoft and Sony releases in their consoles.  3 gigs dedicated to games in both consoles can be the difference of level sizes.
