Just forget that.

Why should I? You're acting like Nintendo deserves a trophy for having a system that has maybe 4 games total that look better than a good looking 360 game. 

The Wii U actually is fairly lame hardware wise ... it's 7 (SEVEN!!) years newer than an XBox 360, this shouldn't even be a debate it should *murder* the XBox 360. The bar should be much higher we're just soft on Nintendo because it's "oh, lol Nintendo gonna Nintendo". 

They get a pass because they're the weird/quirky one, but if Sony had released this same system people would be crying bloody murder at how much of a relative non-upgrade it is from the existing gen. They would get eaten alive for releasing such a console. 

3D World, Bayo 2 ... nah. Should've been a 1TFLOP hardware system at minimum. Game Pad should've been an optional accessorie like the Wii Fit balance board. 

No one gives a crap about remote play, not even Japan is buying the thing for that feature. 

They would've been better off just taking a off the shelf cheapo GPU like a 6670, adding some eDRAM to it. Would've had far better performance for about the same price (would've had to sacrifice on size/electrical consumption but who cares). 

"Why should I? You're acting like Nintendo deserves a trophy for having a system that has maybe 4 games total that look better than a good looking 360 game. "

you should forget because it's not true.

"The Wii U actually is fairly lame hardware wise ... it's 7 (SEVEN!!) years newer than an XBox 360, this shouldn't even be a debate it should *murder* the XBox 360. "

It was never a debate, it murders the x360.

"They get a pass because they're the weird/quirky one, but if Sony had released this same system people would be crying bloody murder at how much of a relative non-upgrade it is from the existing gen. They would get eaten alive for releasing such a console."

Ps4 had by far the smallest jump in power for ps systems and people aren't complaining.
