WiiU has relatively slow RAM, but the much higher amount of eDRAM could easily make up for that, so long as the devs take it into account. right? Additionally, I love my WiiU. Its bad ass in every way so far. Browser is near PC like and the only ported game I've played so far, COD, runs flawlessly with every controller option. |
@Bold. This is kinda a belief based on a fallacy. That the developers will have to do some extra bit of coding or use some special technique to use the eDRAM, or GPGPU functionality. They don't. Its all in the devkit, provided by Nintendo to each developer. This stuff gets used by default. Its why so many studios were able to get working versions of their games up so quickly. Nintendo has a really good devkit this time around.
