It's not really "new" but i've not seen it on VG before. 

So what do you think?

Too good to be true, and goes against everything we've heard about Nintendo finding low-cost components to keep the console at or below $300.

The E series of GPUs are the embedded cores they put in the APU chips, it would be possible but highly unlikely. This practular one is what went into the A6 chip, if I remember correctly.

This deal that is refered to in the article has more to do with the Power 7 CPU they have in the Wii U. Since the MULTI IDE, is a complier suite made to help balence loads in Multi-core processors and help identify potential bottle necks in the software. Below is the link to the product in question. And one of the support chips if the Power line from IBM which includes the 7XX processor that the WiiU will have.

launch titles are not a good indicator. forget what COD 3 looked like on PS3 and 360?

 

Let me remind you.

What's funny is that the Wii version doesn't even look that much worse.

OT:
Could be true. Would be great! Not counting on it though.



So basically he just assumed that,

1-Given that Nintendo has signed a deal with a company called Green Hills Software, and

2-Given that that Green Hills company was the first to use the embedded E6760 chips,

He just did 1+1 and ended with 11, or in this case with Nintendo having to use those embedded chips for the WiiU.

But hey! Don't worry, he's just speculating.

It seems unlikely, I'll be honest
