I find it funny how 1.25 CPU is slow and 1.6 is fast. Only in the internet... its those 350Mhz that make the difference!

It might be easier for people to say Nintendo is slow and Microsoft is fast! Its about as obvious that theres no logic to it.

3 cores @1.25 is (not a little bit, a lot) slower than 8 or 16 cores @ 1.6
here in the internet and everywhere.

i don't get what is so difficult to understand...


ahah... but thats not what the internet says. The internet doesnt mention cores to say the Wii U CPU is slow.

Cores just enter the equation once we are talking about the Xbox. :)

My point is: people troll and hate on nintendo before knowing anything. If the xbox does something similar its suddenly not a problem anymore. That is amusing.

 

Well that's because it would be very misleading to not mention the amount of cores the nextbox supposedly has. The Wii U, on the other hand, is only running three. Thats almost a given and so it does not need mentioning. Having 8 or 16 cores, however, is quite unusual. That definitely needs to be mentioned. Especially because of how much of a difference it makes.
