The entire power draw at the moment is on average 33W. Again, this is with games that aren't pushing the hardware. I didn't for a second suggest that this power draw was all reserved for the GPU. And those components you've mentioned aren't going to drawtthat much power. The CPU, GPU and USB devices will draw the most.

I just don't understand why anyone would still be speculating about what kind of graphics the Wii U can do. It's been out for a while now, and even though games improve during the lifecycle, the current games should give you an idea of the power. Just look at an exclusive like Zombi U, which actually looks worse then most current gen games. Now I know you will say that was just a launch game but even launch titles should show a leap in visuals on a next gen console. Unless, off course, it's not really a next gen console. Infamous SS, Killzone SF and Driveclub are also just launch titles but all of them take a giant dump on anything we seen before. So yes I am sure we will see better looking games on Wii U once developers get more comfortable with the hardware, but same thing applies to the ps4 titles we seen so far.

My point is that there really is no mystery about the Wii U hardware. What you see is what you get and it's arguably a slight upgrade from ps3/ 360. it would be downright silly to expect an increase in Wii U sales based on it's "hidden" processing power and Nintendo has a zero % chance of luring in an audience that are now waiting for next gen graphics. The good thing for Nintendo is that their most populair franchises really don't need high-end graphics, they just need good gameplay and art direction. 

just like the x360 first games? and nintendo land, even though is not a graphic intensive game, shows no graphical flaws: it has great lightning and shadows, AA, 3d modeling, it's already superior to what ps360 can do. I'll say it again, stop whining and wait for E3, it's less than two weeks away, how hard can it be to wait.

Come on now guys, can you honestly say Nintendo Land or Zombi U show a next gen leap over something like Uncharted? Like I said, the Wii U doesn't need 1,87 TFlops to run the cartoony graphics we see in their big selling franchises like Nintendo Land or any MArio title.

Also, why do you think Nintendo isn't even doing a presentation at E3? They are doing a small scale, behind closed doors event for US distributors while they leave the public stage to MS and Sony to show of their next gen fancy pansy graphics.

yes, the amazing number of games nintendo will show before, during and after E3 as well as letting people play those games at best buy stores shows how much they can't compete. seriously, your past trollings were better than that.
