An interesting side note to this discussion is that very late rumors for Wii U prior to release had the CPU running at 3.0ghz. Check out this link from Wii U daily stating the specs of the system. Almost everything is bang-on, except it says the CPU is running at 3.0 while current speculation has been that the production Wii U runs at 1.2. Perhaps there is some truth to it being underclocked at launch? http://wiiudaily.com/wii-u-system-specs/


That's from when it as assumed the Wii U would have a Power 7 based CPU. The Wii's CPU is Power PC 750 based, that chip has never been clocked above 1.6 Ghz.
