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.

WiiU is out first, and likely out for 1.5 to 2 years.  Thats a lot of consoles sold before the competition even appears on the market.  Developers will develop multiplats for the lowest common denominator, just as they did in the PS2 era.  WiiU will define the next gen, not the other way around.

Huh? I thought it was pretty much agreed that the Nextbox would launch Q4 next year...? 

Last I heard nextbox got pushed back to early 2014.  But considering that MS hasn't even shown off the console in any form yet, I think a 2013 launch is unlikely.
