| Thunderbird77 said: The discussion isn't about the ps3 so that's obviously not the point. Wii U handles very graphically demanding games in 720p 60ps, in cases like smash bros, the graphics are lower but resolution higher and xenoblade has less frames in exchange for more stuff on screen. |
Are you not reading the posts you're quoting? The PS3 example is a point in why your comparison with the X1 is flawed. comparing X1 and Wii U using resolution and FPS is similar to comparing PS3 and Wii U in the same manner, the assets in the games each platform runs are a step apart from each other.
X1 running a game in 900p and 30fps that uses assets native to that level is much more demanding than the Wii U running a game at 720p and 60fps at assets native at the latter setting. This is what people are saying that resolution and frames don't show hardware power, the game perfomance may not be a huge difference but the assets, data and engine features used in the games highlight a significant difference between the platfoms.
