If that were true, 3rd parties would have been more likely to abandon PS4/Xbox 720 to make games for Wii U due to lower costs. Instead they are already abandoning the Wii U and workin on next gen games for PS4/Xbox 720. His theory isn't translating well in the real world. If Wii U's games compared to PS4/720 look like Xbox 360 vs. PC today, people are going to think really hard before spending $300-350 on the Wii U: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-a3eilZRlyk Nintendo is going to need to drop the price to $229-249 by Q2 2014 I bet. By holiday 2014, I can see places like Costco having the Basic Wii U for $199, unless Nintendo launches the some amazing 1st party line-up of games we've seen during SNES/N64 days. |
I would imagine the gap is going to be larger than that Crysis 3 vid shows. While the textures are higher res on the PC, and has better lighting/shadowing, the poly count is probably about equal for both versions. However, I would imagine the PS4/NeXbox are going to be able to produce a much higher amount of polygons than the Wii U.
