The wii u yes, 360/PS3 no decision is a wierd one. It is unlikely to sell well on wii u and the 360 and PS3 could probably achieve a superior version to wii u. I know racing games are more about pushing graphics than cpu requirements normally (hence why the ps2 can delivery 1080i visuals in gran turismo) but as with Watchdogs the wii u lack of hard drive creates huge streaming data issues which the ps3 and 360 don't have. Not forgetting both ps3 and 360 have analogue triggers where as the wii u doesn't which is quite important in driving games.

I'm not expecting the wii u to achieve anything that probably hasn't already been achieved on 360 and PS3 in games like Gran Turismo and Forza. The wii u version will likely be heavily compromised.

Both the ps3 and 360 have far superior cpu resources to wii u.

Slightly Mad should use the graphic assets created for the wii u version for later 360 and PS3 versions. It's madness not to support those consoles if you are going to support the wii u. I suspect they may not want to compete with the big Gran Turismo and Forza franchises but I can imagine fans of both series appreciating what Project Cars has to offer.

Can I just tell you that the Wii U is superior to the PS360, and the fact that they managed to run Project CARS on the Wii U without compromizes unlike the PS360 shows that.

Plus, they promised a Wii U version while fundraising, so they have to make it for Wii U.


Maybe you have hit the nail on the head with that last comment and why they are commited to wii u. As for the wii u superiority most multi-format games perform better on 360 and ps3 compared to their wii u versions where available. Often better frame rates, sometimes more graphic detail and one or two with higher resolution on ps3 or 360. Check out digital foundry comparisons of various games. The wii u vs 360/PS3 is something like a snes vs megadrive comparison. The wii u may have a better gpu but both 360 and PS3 easily surpass wii u for cpu performance and as for the rest of the spec there is good and bad on both sides. Compare the the technically most impressive games of all 3 consoles and its an easy win for 360 and PS3. Perhaps that will change when X is released but that seems to be going through a series of downgrades before release so unsure how good that will look finally. Xenoblade Chronicles looked impressive on wii but then when you looked a bit closer a lot of it was quite low resolution even for a wii game.
