Am I the only one here who has actually seen Mario Kart 8 in action? I was at the Best Buy event last June and waited in line for two hours to play five minutes of 3D World. I got to watch multiple people play Mario Kart, and YES. Even back in June, that game looked amazing. It ran well. It blew me away. I keep saying that it is a Pixar movie in motion. Maybe you all think that it isn't 'technically' impressive. All because it doesn't do 1080p? Because 60fps isn't a joke. To get that level of detail running that smoothly is a technical achievement. Okay, let's see the Xbox guys try optimizing their fictional kart series for Xbox One, get it to look that good, and run at 60fps.
How many 60fps games are on Wii U already? How about the Bone or the PS4? I will take 720p, 60fps over 1080p, laggy crap that drops to 15 fps (Dead Rising 3, cough cough) every day of the week. Every. Day. A developer can do their best to show off all they want, but no one can argue that Nintendo has the best polish on their games, ESPECIALLY (emphasized to the extreme) in the gameplay department, which is the core of any game.
