Of course it does. The differences in the 8th gen will be a lot smaller than a lot of people realize.


I highly doubt that claim. I mean just look at the the facts. And don't get me wrong i love my Wii u just as much as I am going to love my PS4 and Xbpx One, but specs do mean something. Difference between Xbox One and PS4 will be minimal and we all will see just how minimal this gen except for exclusives maybe. But there is no way the Wii u can keep up at all all. If there is not a big difference then we will know where cod ghost stand graphically compared to everything else this coming gen. 

What he is referring to is the law of diminishing returns and the fact the gap between Wii and PS3/X360 was much larger than the gap between Wii U and PS4/Xone.

The law of diminishing returns notes that the perceptive difference in increases in power become less noticible with each increase.  That doesn't mean they won't be perceptible at all, just less so.

This can be looked at similarly to the differences seen in discrete PC GPU's.   At the low end, the difference between double the RAM, speeds, shaders, etc..is very noticible.   At the high end, those differences start to become mcuh harder to perceive.
