Look at the improvement from the PS3's launch games to its current games. The difference is striking. Like just about every console, the Wii U will also show a striking improvement over its current games. To compare 6th/7th year PS360 game to rushed, launch port Wii U games is not an accurate comparison of system capability. Here's what a PS3 launch title COD looks like: And here's what a Wii U COD launch title looks like: Now there's a fair comparison; launch port COD to launch port COD.
And it's a relic because it's not definitive any more. The Wii, DS, PSP, and Wii U have all bucked the trend, so it's not longer an all-encompassing definition. |
Intragenerational dev has fuck all to do with this conversation.
Look, one reason the Wii U is doing so badly is that the games it CURRENTLY offers show NO IMPROVEMENT over existing games. Yes game may get better, but right now we have a brand new console that shows no improvement over much cheaper counterparts. With the 360 and PS3, both showed improvements over their predecessors.
