Just did some reading up, 0.176tflop/s is the lower end of guesses and 0.352tflop/s (the number in the OP) is pretty much the best case scenario for the WiiU. So the WiiU's GPU is somewhere between quite a lot weaker than its competition and an awful lot :p (in terms of peak performance anyway).

According to what you read, sure.

As fatslob said earlier in the thread, if the WiiU's GPU has the same watt to GFLOPs ratio the most efficient 40nm GPU AMD have ever produced (which is rather unlikely for a lower end GPU like Latte), then it would be peaking at about 0.362tflop/s. That's just basic math.

Well, there is certain individual around here who claimed that WiiU is in 600-700 GFLOPS range - (un)fortunately, he is banned, so he can't "contribute" to this thread. For everyone else that has at least basic knowledge of GPUs and some common sense your numbers are most reasonable.

Not that it really matters much in the end, most devs/publishers have already made up their minds - to be honest, at this point I have a hunch that a lot of them hate that they even have to bother with XOne, considering even PS4 is at the minimum of what they were expecting from this gen.
