Bolded: irrelevant
rest: now you are showing your real opinion. you don't WANT the wii u to get multiplats and that's just sad. wishing doom for the console you won't buy.

You are mistaking me completely for what I'm saying.
I couldn't care less if the Wii U becomes the best selling console of all time with a massive games library.
I primarily game on the PC these days, consoles have held back multi-platforms for to long on the PC, with most games abusing the horrible Unreal Engine 3.
I don't want it to be held back even more next generation, that's really not a hard thing to grasp is it? I don't even consider the PS4 powerfull enough for the long yards and I would have loved for it to be more than twice as powerfull, for my benefit indirectly. - The Wii U doesn't benefit me even in the slightest, only the opposite, it will hold back gaming graphics even more than the PS4 will if it has an abundance of multiplatforms as developers will use that system as the lowest common denominator to design games around.
Selfish, I know, but I doubt I'm the only one on this planet who feels the same.
And whilst I'm typing this my cat is running around the house eating moths like a lunatic, had to share that with the world.

gamers shouldn't have any problem with this situation. you focus is on graphics, wich have reached a point where raw power doesn't matter. look at the best looking game on ps360, you can't expect more than perfection on graphics and they are already pretty close to that.

Not at all. Graphics are nowhere near perfectection. We still can't even product Toy Story graphics in real time. If we can't even create high-end animated graphics, how are we supposed to create realistic graphics?
One thing that current-gen consoles suffer from is poor performance. Even if graphics were at their limit(they really aren't) there's still a lot of room for improvement in terms of performance.
You're right about one thing though, raw power doesn't matter. It's a good thing that next-gen consoles have more than just "raw power".

My point isn't about achieving 100% realism. the point is, take a look at things like the evil within screenshots. if the graphics get any better than that does it really matter? does it need to get better? everything is high quality to the extreme, why worry about more? only graphic whores care for that, true gamers will play the games and be sactisfied by the gameplay content, because the visuals don't need to get any better (perfection).

Evil Within is a next-gen game scaled down for current-gen. Expect current-gen versions to have lower frame-rates, clipping and a lot of other performance issues. We dont' need to achieve 100% realism, we likely never will. That doesn't mean we should stop improving graphics.
Powerful consoles lead to more than just better graphics. They lead to bigger worlds, dynamic environments, more destruction....etc. Better graphics can allow for better gameplay.
I'm not a "graphics whore". I don't buy games purely based on graphics, but they certainly do help. If you REALLY don't care about graphics, how about you go back and play some PS1 or N64 games. You'll realize how important graphics really are for immersion.
