we do have the specs for the most part http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/df-hardware-wii-u-graphics-power-finally-revealed

look under my sig those are all confirmed specs barring some kind of miracle.

The specs are incomplete, and some of them are assumptions rather than fact.

did you read the article, most of it is cold hard facts, at first some people said eurogamer rushed the article but its going on 2 days now and nobody corrected anything, even neogaf are accepting the 352 gflops numbers now here is quote i found intersting in the comment section.

 

Am I the only one being shocked by the fact that the Wii U CPU is basically the same type that I had in my 1998 PowerMac G3?! Am I correct here, it's basically a triple-core overclocked PowerPC 750?!! ROFLMAO! No wonder the poor ports and performance, the GPU on that thing is no powerhouse by any means but that ancient CPU architecture is choking it blue. A 3DFX Voodoo2 would have been a better match. They'd be better off if they'd stuck a current low-end, dual-core celeron in there instead but I guess they got a ridiculously good deal on tons of left-over GC/Wii CPU's laying around the manufacturers warehouse. Facepalm Nintendo, facepalm...

I read the article; there's plenty of unknown factors and guesstimates. And I'm not sure how a troll post helps your point?

i don't see how its a troll post it actaully makes sense, why they put such a weak cpu in the machine. anyway i believe DF, they have a amazing track record, no reason to doubt them and nobody has proved them wrong.
