Depends on how much you trust wikipedia.
According to the wii u wiki page.
Technical specifications
Nintendo has released technical specifications of the Wii U hardware, which are listed below. These specifications are subject to change.
Processors

I just edited it back. That GPU is not confirmed at all.
|
I knew wiki couldn't be trusted but this is ridiculous. I was hoping someone had inside info.
What about the power7 CPU?
Should that not be changed as well to IBM Power CPU or something?
And indicating that these specs are from Ninty's mouth are also misleading.

Yes, the power7 bit should also be taken down since that rumor was recently killed by IBM.
|
IBM didn't say it wasn't Power7. That last tweet only said Power....which could mean anything.
The GPU stuff has been pure rumor. Even if they are true, you can't post rumors on Wiki.

“Pardon the error. It’s a custom chip built on Power Architecture base.”
True, without any context 'Power' alone can mean anything. However, this was a response to their previous message 'confirming' Power7. So the fact that they say that it was an 'error' leads me to believe that it is not Power7. Still, it's all a bit confusing and non-definite. Which is why it really shouldn't be on Wikipedia at this point.
