Then explain Crytek and Epic games making the same call about graphics   -_-

Simply put, going from one environment where resources are plentiful, to one where they are very, very limited, is going to put developers off porting games over. 

Only think I can say is Crytek and Epic, unlike Quantic Dreams, make things actually get into the realm of games.  They do also make game engines, which likely impacts what they are saying also, and saying based on what developers say.  But I have, in my threads, been questioning whether or not the Wii U has enough memory to handle next generation's titles sufficiently, and what kind of games will be coming out.

Nice how your opinion is definitive.

Either way, the answer to what kind of games will be coming out are ones that look similar to 7th gen games and most likely very few ports from the PS4 - probably cross platform titles that are 7th -> 8th gen, but none that are made specifically for the 8th gen. In short, expect to to get games like how the Wii did - they'll be gimped massively and be few in number.

No way am I definitive now, when information isn't complete yet.  I can see how things might be, but the industry may decide to continue to develop as they do now with prettier graphics, so the Wii U could hold up.  But I do have concerns.
