Graphically, I would expect a 10x increase in image quality, it's a given, no idea where you pulled that 4.5x number from, it's the GPU rendering all those pretty graphics remember, not the Ram or the CPU.

That's not how it works. A GPU that's 10x more powerful doesn't necessarily lead to 10x the image quality.

By that logic, PS4 could handle 10 1080p screens at once.

But I agree that if developers are willing, any piece of ps4 software can run on the wii u. its not the same difference we had from wii to ps360. Those were one entire generation apart. PS4 is at best, 4x more powerful than wii u. PS3 was more than 20 times more powerfull than wii. (by internet tech heads, not me claiming these numbers)

 

Also, in a few years down the road, I dare anyone to distinguish a Wii U game pushing it's hardware from a game pushing PS4, out of a video compilation of some sort. 

Mario Galaxy upscaled, has aceptable graphics to be a PS3 psn game.

Sorry but PS4 and Wii U games will be in completely different leagues. Sure there will be some multiplats where the difference won't be so obvious but there will also be games that won't come to Wii U at all. PS4 or Xbox 720 will become the lowest common denominator next-gen and these games will be built to run on these powerful consoles.


Lets just wait and see what will happen, in my opinion graphics are now with PS3, WiiU and Xbox 360 are at a point where there is no real benefit or need for improvements they are almost photo realistic in games like Uncharted, Beyond two Souls or Gears of War, it is not possible and there is no need to improve this.

It only costs a incredible amount of money and at the end almost no one see a real difference. So let us see how many developers really want to wast a bunch of money for almost nothing. I am quite sure that almost all games will be possible with only a slight downgrade from PS4 and 720 to WiiU. The other question is if developers are willing to make downports and this will depend on how good or bad the WiiU sales will become with the time.
