You have to update the WiiU ram.   According to neogaf it is not even 17gb/s, it is.......12.8gb/s

Damn, updating now. Thanks for notifying.

Because someone on the internet said it, it must be true ...

Surely you people should wait when real technical specs roll in, not just a lonely number.

And the headline is false at all, because the eDRAM is also RAM and much more and faster than on any console before.

Then we would be waiting forever. There's a reason Nintendo hasn't(and won't) reveal specs. The system is way too underpowered to be a next-gen system. This just wont' get good 3rd party support. The ports it already had are horrible.


You are going to be really dissapointed when the Orbis and Durango come out if that's your train of thought.

Disapointed? Nope.

I know that at least Sony cares about making high-end hardware that is future-proof. They don't go for "Good enough".

It's guaranteed that the PS4/720 will be way more powerful than a PS3/360, if you think they won't, you're the one that's going to be disapointed. You see with Microsofts and Sony's consoles, 3rd party is king. 3rd party developers NEED powerful consoles to continue to push games and not be limited by 6/7 year old conosles.


They only did it for the PS3(and not really future proof either, it's really not that strong), and it costed them too much with not a lot of returns if at all, it just wouldn't be wise in their current money situation. If the rumors are true regarding the Orbis using those parts, then yes, you will be dissapointed, it will maybe last 5 years along side the other 2 at the very best. If anything, I predict the next xbox being the most powerful, but still not future proof. I mean shit, future proof in PC term is like 5 years tops. I don't even know why Sony thought they can make the PS3 last 10 years and evidently, they can't.

PS3 will last 10 years. We will be getting the FIFAs, Maddens and Call of Dutys for it years after the PS4 is released. Sony's financial situation or PS3 woes have nothing to do with this. I saw those PS4 specs, and from the looks of it PS4 > Wii U, and those aren't even finalized specs.

It does when Sony is struggling to pay the bills.
