On its reveal at E3 2011, Wii U was showcased with a HD Zelda teaser that set tongues wagging:

More than two years later, do you think Wii U has cleared the visual bar set by the demo yet?

Not really beneficial to use this as the benchmark, the controller is a dummy unit, its essentially a touchscreen and controls linked directly to a PC running the then, early build of the SDK, the software on screen during this presentation has never actually run on actual retail-spec hardware.

You don't know what you're talking about.

I can't believe I have to bother saying this, but the videos also show the console behind the tvs. it wasn't the final console, but the hardware couldn't be much different than the final version. saying the controller was a dummy only makes your case worse. E3 2011 had several PLAYABLE wii u demos that used touchscreen, buttons and gyro. They even had the chase mii demo with 5 player local multiplayer right there.

This is well known information that you either pretended it didn't exist or didn't even bother check. Either option completely invalidates what you said before.
