SxyxS said: I guess the numbers are wrong. 1.25gh is even for the usual nintendo low tech to pathetic. You can manufacture the same cpu running 1.5-2.0 for almost the same money,but than you can better compete with the soon coming ps460.Why taking the risk to lose the remaining core gamers if you can save only a few pennies?-or nintendo think that they can keep the wii u running only with mario ,dance party and mario kart .this may work for 2-3years but soon they will be in same trouble like they were in the past 2years with the wii software sales.

The CPU speed isn't about money though.... I don't think so anyway. It seems to me that the Wii U is getting stuck with a subpar CPU for two reason, 1 is backwards compatability and the other is because Nintendo really wanted to make the Wii U super small.
I'm not liking that idea.... it's very Japan-centric, which makes sense as Nintendo is a Japanese company and the only region they seem to really fight for is Japan. It's just a shame that the system might have a real bottle neck only because they wanted to make it run less hot in that little box and consume less power; it also makes a slim model down the road less attractive to consumers.

If they win the Asian market, they pretty much can secure large sums of profit, this is a corporation names Nintendo and if nothing else, they'll always be profitable in that regard, let's not forget that.
