Pemalite comes into almost every PS4 thread and bashes the "low end CPU", when he hasn't even seen a console run a complete game on it and calls for console maker to make super high end pieces of tech.. its called being realistic. I am not trying to downplay the Wii U or anything, but at the same time you can't say that Wii U is a massive leap from current gen in terms of hardware.

All I'm saying is that people will see the difference for the PS4/720 (although less of a visual leap from last gen) people WILL be able to tell the difference. So no.. the point of dimishing returns is not here, yet.

Then we agree, people will be able to tell the difference but it will not be a horrible difference like it was for Wii vs PS360 (SD vs HD).

The U is HD and will offer a lot of detail, though not as much as the PS4/720 it will still be reasonable due to diminishing returns. Even if the gap between Wii and PS360 is smaller than the gap between U and PS4/720, the point of diminishing returns is approaching and so the gap is reduced in its impact.

I agree this is speculative, but so are a lot of the posts here. We all saw the U's graphics, we all saw the Killzone demo, and I can tell you that I'm pretty sure it will be downscalable to U-like graphics without unplayable differences. In other words, it will still look very nice, just not nearly as nice as on the more powerful consoles (which come at their price).

You were talking about getting off a high-horse, so we're kind of debating diamonds versus diamonds here.
