Not sure why simply using CE3 is impressive, even the PS3 and 360 were compatible with it :P

Still, it's a nice looking game. Perhaps not quite the jump i was expecting after a year and a half on the market, but with Nintendo's lack of graphical ambition we have to settle with the ambition of 3rd/2nd parties. Definitely going to keep an eye on this ^^ Haven't bought a Sonic game in year.


Lack of graphical ambition..? Super Mario 3D World, Mario Kart 8, X and SSBU all say different. And so will Zelda U when we see it.

I wouldn't call Mario 3D World or Smash Bros graphically ambitious. And I wouldn't count on Zelda U being a graphical showcase either; we all expected Skyward Sword to push the Wii's limits, but instead it looked like a Gamecube game.

Not many Wii games actually look better than this final battle. In fact, the lightning in this level looks better than the lightning in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze in my opinion. 

I agree with Super Smash Bros., but Super Mario 3D World looks great in my opinion. Obviously I hope the next 3D Mario looks better, but that's because it comes later in the Wii U life cycle and they have more experience with HD development now.
