well if your hardware is 6 years newer, more effeciante and has 1.5x the power, i do find very hard to believe, and its just not rare case with one port were talking about the majority of ports. its like giving a race car driver a car with 1.5x power and still coming in at the same speed at the much slower car, it just doesnt make any sense.

Why do you continue to ignore the CPU and the fact the game engines were designed to be operated on 3.2 Ghz CPU's?
The GPU is not the only variable you need to consider.
Your car analogy fails to look at the size of the tires and transmission gear ratios.

we don't actually know how problematic the cpu is, criteron mentioned that it wasn't a problem for them, but we clearly see the lack the 320 sp, with current gen games lacking AA and higher resolution, i have yet to see a great looking game coming out on wiiu with good AA, which tells me clealry its not a 320sp gpu but we have time and by this year if assain creed 4, and watch dogs, are on par or worst then current gen, then we have confirmation but of course you cause will deny it, and call the devs lazy, instead of just calling it bad hardware.

Again you fail to take into account the learning curve; devs have not yet learned how to harness Wii U's GPU. Few have even tried.
Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed 4 Wii U will most likely be just the 360 version thrown onto Wii U with the bare minimum of optimization, and no effort to even try to use it's extra RAM and newer GPU. When a dev has more than twice as much RAM and doesn't use it, that's a confirmation of laziness, not poor hardware.

actually its poor hardware, 360 was released in 2005, had nintendo made a sytem with a 320sp gpu, a decent cpu and decent bandwidth there would be no reason for ports not look better, evn lazy ports, for example ps2 to xbox, very different architecture, released the same gen, yet all you had to do with the majority of games was throw the ps2 code and it would run at higher resolution and better framerate, keep in mind that console was released the same gen/1 yeat after ps2, not 7 years later.
