The game is “easily on a par [with Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions],” says Lycett. “We’re still very much getting to grips with what we can make the hardware do [...]. So it’s hard to really answer that right now, but yeah, I think once we’ve had a bit more time finding our way around it, chances are you can look to do things that you may not be able to do before.” 

 

So, Eurogamer site translates a game into graphics between systems?

Europgamer failed in reporting the original story.

Everyone and there mother that is developer says it's way more powerful.

Wii-U has stuff in it that ps3 and xbox don't have because it never had features that were out in 2008-2009.

You have to be a fanboy or idiot to think it will be on par.

2009 tech on par with 2005?

Do people even think?

What's next 1994 tech on par with 1999 tech?

-_-

yeah GoW2 looked great specially those backgorunds, but it had a fixed camera, allowing devs to use resources more efficiently
i will add Gran turismo, as it was,without a doubt, he best looking racing sim out there
Starfox adventures was another winner in terms of visuals

I think early gen games from 3rd parties will probably be on par with PS3/360. But we all know early gen games are no where near as good graphically as mid-late gen games.

They are already better.

I didn't know Wii U was out already.

What does that have to do with the game being better? The devs themselves have said its better.

Developers talk a lot of crap.. or rather most do.

When I bought the the wii I was led to believe that it's graphical power was "not far from" or "close to" x360 graphics because of the rumours going on at that time. Obviously a lie.

One of the many articles praising wii before launch 2006:
A new rumour is spreading around that although Nintendo Wii will not have HD, games will graphically look on par with Xbox 360. According to the report below, the IGN specs were not from final development kits (Reggie Fils-Aime did state that the final kits were being sent in June) and that the real final dev kits were originally given to closer third-party developers such as Square-Enix for their upcoming Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Online sequel.
We may also recall that EA Canada yesterday claimed in an IGN interview that the graphics were not a “Gamecube 1.5″ and that they were stunning. At the same time games will run in 480p, Progressive Scan 16×9 widescreen for Enhanced Definition quality.

My point. Wait and see. Don't believe the hype or lack of hype.
