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 those 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.

600 to 700 GFLOPs? So he believes the WiiU's GPU is almost twice as efficient as the most efficient 40nm GPU AMD have ever produced? :P Well ain't that a fun thought lol.

Really though, i don't understand why anyone would be disappointed by the PS4 or even X1's specs. Whoever was expecting high end PC gaming off of a $400 console was mad :p Not to mention the vast majority of gamers only play on consoles/handhelds, to them the likes of Killzone, Ryse or inFamous are massive steps up over even the most recent 7th gen games, let alone their original launch titles.
