Uh, shouldn't this be described as "ONE man talk about his sole experience with the Wii U"? Seriously, I can't exactly call this mindblowing or eye opening when it's just ONE guy. One, not the whole team not even multiple members of the dev team. Perhaps if we had more instances references from other companies, other people, other entities in general this might hold more wait, but this really just comes off as anecdotal. Not exactly great evidence.

These articles confirm the CPU troubles and enhanced (but not to the point of X1 or PS4) GPU. The only new information in the article is the state of the SDK environment and tech support around launch. Everything else confirms whats been on the internet for a while now. Also explains the state of ports on the system does it not. Is that enough evidence?

The main problem is just not the cpu, its everything, the gpu, the ram, the tools, the feedback from nintendo, based on what we know, we have  devs saying saying the wiiu slighty more powerful or  equal to 360/ps3, some devs say it's more powerful, but they don't go into detail. nintendo should have designed a console that could at least run 360/ps3 just on brute force, after all these are 7 year old consoles, it really doesnt take much, yet nintedno was just happy enough to have it in the same ball park. if you can't run 360/ps3 games easily how the heck are they suppose to run nextgen games. this reminds of the ps3 vs 360, some developers were saying ps3 is more powerful, some were saying they are equal.
