So when they see a Ferrari they automatically say its faster than a VW? Even tho they have no idea if the Ferrari has a steering wheel or tires at all?

Makes sense to me :)

To bad something like newer shader technology etc is not important at all and doesnt count as "next gen". I mean its so unimportat that all ps3 and 360 games still look like PS2 games just with higher resolution and more polys. There is nothing at all that uses the shader advantage of the 360/Ps3! /sarcasm

I mean seriously lets say WiiU will be able to handle nextbox etc shaders but the console will run at a lower resolution and at the same time the polycount will be a bit lower (PS2 vs XBOX1) then of course its on par with the 360 LOL.

To bad noone made a game called resident evil revelations that shows that despite the 3ds being less powerful than a Wii it can have better graphics.


P.S. Its nice to see that GEN is such a officially recognized and accepted term that we can CLEARLY say what is next and what is last gen etc.

They do say the GPU is better than 360's though...just not by much

And exactly there is the problem.  It is better  and I say its not just better by a little bit.

Btw how to they know how much better it is? Even today developers and consumers say WOW I had no idea the PS3/360 can produce games that look like this (e.g. Battlefield 3)  so if noone knows what a 7 year old console can do how do they know what a new console can do with totally different architecture?

As long as we dont have a REAL clue what the next consoles will look like we cant say the WiiU is  clearly not next gen.   And when we finally have the new consoles and their only advantage is a higher resolution and more polys  but other than that the game looks the same  then the WiiU is more nextgen than it is last gen.

For me the 3DS is also alot better than the PSP and both are def not the same GEN! (it does not matter if the PSP can have roughly the same number of polys or whatever since it will never be able to handle games like Revelations)
