You guys looking at this all wrong.

Take your obsessed gaming hat off and actually look at when he said. All legitimate stuff in my opinion. It's twitter, he can say what he likes and he'd know more than any of you lot.

Honestly, the Nintendo defense force are starting to rival SDF.

He clearly knows his he will have had first hand experience with the Wii0U. How about talking about what he said from a technical angle?

Yeah, pretty much this.

You would think that a senior software engineer at one of the biggest companies in the industry would know a thing or two about the hardware he's working on. But nope.. they'll dismiss this because they don't like the sound of it and have to come up with some rediculous conspiricy at EA to counterbalance their arguments against them.

Have you seen the thread talking about the update which overclocks the Wii U. The random article which came from an unknown source which was blatantly fake and yet people went in and believed that nonsense. There were some bat shit crazy replies on there.

You're generalizing. Most of us didn't believe it (either because the number was too high or why the hell would Nintendo deliberately down-clock in the first place? It's not like Wii U has battery life to worry about).

Meanwhile, this guy is saying things that people from his own company have proven false.

Well, a lot of people still put some weight behind it and claim that it's possibly true (and this is all coming from an unconfirmed source). Talks raising the clock speeds while not being knowledgable about how the hardware works. Yet, when someone in the industry says negative things about a said console (of choice) its instantly bullshit because of bias of said company.

The issue I have is with people who claim they know more about the consoles and software development, than the actual people working on it.

To your last sentence.. that might be his personal experience with the console. Sports games might have to rely more on CPU side of things for the AI, physics and animation.. so who's to say that there isn't any truth in what he has to say.
