You're all making the Wii U sound like a super powerful machine that overkills the PS3 & 360 in specs, LOL.

It is not overkill, but I really seriously doubt that either of the last gen consoles could be able to run nintendoland and zombiu, if a peripheral like a wiiu gamepad came to existence.

I'm just asking if it is a valid requirement to include the gamepad visuals to the overall wii u performance, when comparing multiplatform games. And aparrently it is, depending on the use.

It seems that, hypothetically, if watch dogs runs on ps3 and wii u at 720p30fps, even if the gamepad is outputting a different 3D scene, the 480p processing at whatever framerate won't be taken into consideration in comparisons by digital foundry, when the console is pushing so much more pixels than the ps3 and actually manages to push nice visuals with improved performance.

 

Thats just the tv, and the GamePad has a 1080p stream onto it's 480p screen (at least for 1080p games anyways)
