Of course Wii U is going to be more powerful, its much newer hardware. But as someone who has played the console I havent seen it do anything the PS360 cant do. Im sure its capable of more but as of now developers havent taken advantage of the hardware.
What I dont understand are the people who think Durango and Orbis wont be giant leaps over current gen. Because they will be MASSIVE jumps |
Because of the many many economic and situational reasons talked about in many many threads like this one and PS4 cutting edge thread. It does not make any sense whatsoever for there to be this huge leap like last time. You're going to be disappointed if you don't face that reality. The amount of horsepower that would have to be included in those consoles to get the same kind of leap we got from PS2 to PS3 would make the consoles prohibitively expensive due to the law of diminishing returns. We're talking 1000 dollar consoles here. It isn't going to happen.

1000 dollars? You could get a 600 dollar PC right now that is way more powerful than the Wii U. Keep in mind that the MS and Sony consoles aren't releasing in quite a while

A tower, yes, but not a laptop. Form factor of the WiiU has much more in common with a laptop than it does with a desktop. TDP requirements as well. And that isn't the point I'm making. I'm not saying you couldn't get a PC with more power than a WiiU for under 1000 dollars. I'm saying you can't get a gaming laptop that will blow the WiiU away without dropping over 1000 dollars. More Like 1500. That is the kind of leap that would have to be made by PS4 or Xbox in order to massively dwarf the capabilities of the WiiU this generation.
