Proof that the Wii-U is no better performance wise than current gen consoles is finally arriving.

Eat my shorts non believers.

It has a minimum of 480 shader cores VS. 48 on the 360.

It uses 2010 technology VS. 2004 technology on the 360.

It has a 2 GB RAM vs. 256 RAM in 360.

It has somewhere from 500 to a little over 1,000 GFLOPs.

It has 5.3 GHz Wireless VS. 2.4 GHz Wireless on the 360.

So may I ask you what the funky wackos are you talking about?

GFLOPS numbers are all over the place (300-600 seem to be a more recent guesses).  But anyhow they aren't always the best way to determine actual performance.  Like the GC's having a 1/3rd the GFLOPS of the Xbox but being able to hold its own with it in real performance.  And with what has been known for some while is the Wii U looks be much like the GC, being highly efficient.
