People can't get out of their mind that time NOT POWER defines generation.

From this story, it appears the WiiU is about 1.5x to no more than 2x times as powerful as the HD current consoles. That is on the low-end was my estimate before it was ever released (I said 1.5x to 2.5x). So this news should surprise no one.

Truth is that the PS4 and Xbox 720 will outshine Nintendo's console's technology -- everyone knew that. The questions are whether or not the technology that Nintendo has will be innovative enough to keep people interested and whether or not Sony and Microsoft can produce consoles that meet people's needs and resources.

And this does not even begin to consider game quality.

If people want raw power over touch screens and just want to play FPS games -- then Sony and Microsoft will succeed and Nintendo will have a rough time.

If Microsoft and Sony produce high-end super-consoles that need 4K HD TVs to be truly appreciated and for which games cost $70, then Nintendo is sitting pretty.

Personally, I have made my choice and am happy with it presently. If someone else makes a choice and can live with it, that is fine by me.

Trying to bring some common sense to this discussion -- but probably failing because everyone feels they must be right, snarky or both.

if you ask me that comment proves you're no better than those you mocked for lacking common sense with their posts
