This rumour about NX CPU is pretty reliable, same guy before gave true informations about GC, Wii and Wii U CPUs.
| tokilamockingbrd said: So this is the big news? A console launching 3 years after another set of consoles will "have noticeably better cpu performance" I would hope so. This whole thing just reminds me of the dreamcast. Launching against the peak year of the current gen. The dreamcast was superior to the N64 and PS1 by a long shot. But what killed it was the fact the older consoles were getting the games that had been years in the making while the DC was offering launch qualities. |
Yes its a big news, Wii CPU is basically GC CPU and incompressible weaker than PS3/Xbox360 CPUs, Wii U CPU is slower than 6/7 years old CPUs in Xbox360/PS3, so having CPU that is stronger around 30% than those in 3 years old PS4/XB1 consoles is quite progres for Nintendo. :)
What exactly killed Dreamcast is Sega bad financial decisions, Dreamcast wasnt selling that bad but Sega didnt had any money to support it any more, they basically left without money. Sega was basically financially forced to discontinued Dreamcast just 2 year after launch.
