Forums - Nintendo - "One of the weaknesses of the Wii U compared to PS3 and Xbox 360 is the CPU power'' -Warriors Orochi dev

Darc Requiem on 21 September 2012

I wonder if some these issues are being caused by architectural differences. The Wii U CPU is an out of order execution processor. Both the PS3 and 360 have in order execution CPUs.

That means nothing. Nintendos philosophy doesn't revolve around graphics.

It means everything.  In the end, the ones that accuse Nintendo mostly care about graphics and now that it's guaranteed to be able to do much better now they jump on anything they can to say the Wii U is worse than the 360/PS3.

They'll still complain we've already seen next gen graphics. Again...it means nothing. The Wii U will be in graphics as what the Wii was to this gen to the 360 and ps3. They will enjoy tech superiority and leveling themselves with their competitors, but after a year or two they will be far behind.

I read somewhere that the Wii U's CPU peaks at around 3GHZ.. in comparison the ps3s CPU I read peaks at around 3.2-3.5Ghz

STAGE
the Wii launched a year after the Xbox360
the WiiU is launching a year before the nextbox
Nintendos philosophy has always been about top notch tech, the Wiimote was top notch tech when released, same with the GC and the N64
the WiiU will be the strongest console for at least a year, are you going to be playing on weaker systems all that time?

I can't believe how so many people are spinning this article out of context and jumping to conclusions about WiiU's future and their purchases or not. Seriously! It's getting old fast. I'm still going to get mine, but all this BS about the power is REALLY getting on my nerves.
