It's not. It's already been confirmed that the chip is a Power7. It's also been confirmed that there is no HDD built-in - it'll be flash-memory - and you can merely use your own external USB HDD if so desired.

I loved it about 3 minutes after I saw it, same feeling as when they first showed the wiimote.
The fact that it works with the wiimote is huge.
| thetonestarr said: If they do a multiple screentroller setup, one thing to remember is that, to support extra controllers, it takes extra RAM and extra CPU (mostly CPU) - it most likely has ZERO drain on the GPU because the controllers will likely have their own built-in GPU to do that work. That's a lot less strenuous for the system, and it evens the load a ton. If there's going to be only one controller EVER supported, then that probably won't be the case - it'll probably strictly be an image transmitted wirelessly, no computing at all in the controller. |
I don't think it's at all feasible to have a GPU on the controller when the CPU and memory aren't. It would also need GPU memory and it would need to duplicate all the textures etc. via slow wireless instead of the usual high-speed bus.
No, I'm pretty sure all the controller will contain is a simple chip to decode video sent from the console.

I find it knee slapping funny that people were like "The Darkness 2 (or any other of the 3rd Party games shown) look better on the Xbox 360/PS3"
Why do I find this funny? Because it was FOOTAGE from the Xbox 360/PS3.

| irstupid said: haven't seen conference, btu a few vids so far so i'm limited, but here are my initial thoughts on what NEAT things it can do. 1. saw a vid with the controller hooked up on a gun. imagine four player shooters with each person having their screen on their controller. sorry sony, your split screen with glasses on just got trumped. 2. really hoping it has nice media features. controlling the tv and netflix and so on using a touch screen would be really nice. Regardless hoping all games have thier menus on this thing. so much easier to just click than to have to scroll or POINT as wiimote did. 3. FLAWLESS SCREENS. take any game, what clutters up the tv, random health meters. mana meters, ammo remaining, gun equiped, ect. All those things woudl be removed and down onto the controller. no more huds on the screen and thus purely 1080 pretty game to watch. 4. i loved the whole play the game while watching tv. some games i'm fine not having on the huge tv and this is essentially a PIP, but better. i mean you can play your games on tv, and then say someone comes and wants to watch tv so you let them while you continue playing on your controller. Sure i might not want to do that for some games, but many i'm sure i'll be fine. 5. NO MORE PAUSING. with a menu at the ready at all times, there shoudl be no needs to ever pause and cycle through inventory and so on to equip. it can all be done while still playing. i hate in games like ocarina of time or resident evil 4 and many others having to go into menu to select stuff. 6. dragon age, witcher and other rpgs. bam no more, more buttons on pc. no more RADIAL menu to select shit. you could have like 50 buttons on the touchscreen to do stuff. |
That was the main thing I was excited when the rumours started: you basically have in your hands whatever the situation demands: writing text or multiple commands are made so easily now. Even easier than with a keyboard if done right.
im buying it, looks interesting and i have wanted to get into Nintendo games for a long time and there was NO way i was doing it with the 'Wii 1'
