To Ninjablade (in weird his mind) the Wii U is just two N64 tapped together...jeeez what a los...!!!

I guess that works...I haven't seen him for a while.  How much is it?

yea me saying wiiu being on par with ps3/360 means two N64 duct tapped together, vigil, tecmo and metro last light are also biased, along with beyond3d.

I'm gonna quote Tachikoma from my thread "Why PS4 won't be cutting edge, and neither will Xbox3", because I think she provides quite interesting points, and since you're always reasonable I thought I'd ask you what you think:

Upon release of both, yes the WiiU will be positioned much less powerful than the others, in more or less the same power-gap seen by the Wii.

Yes i have seen XenoGame but it's really not that technically impressive, from a developers perspecive, the overall look is fine in small screenshots and videos, but on the big screen it's on par with (at best) a PS3/360 game, and at worst, on part with a poor ps3/360 game, the textures we use for each console are based on the recommended values given in the SDK, we can use higher providing we are willing to make sacrifices elsewhere to make room in memory, but in general no - i seriously doubt xeno uses anything over 1024x1024, theyre in all probability overlaying one 1024x1024 texture with another containing alpha to break up the repitition of the texture, or using a detail texture for terra maps that is 2048x512 superimposed under the terrain map which will be made up of several 1024x1024 textures painted in to give the effect of a diverse and detailed land map.

Of course if you throw in some 2d foliage sprites you break up the repition even more.

But generally, no, i watched the XenoGame trailer and I can say, hand on heart, that if that's the champion of the WiiU graphics department, when the competitiors release later this year the WiiU will be undoubtably in the same power gap placement as the Wii has been this generation.

What do all of you guys think about this? She's apparently a developer and isn't too impressed with this trailer. Does she have a point in what she says? I'm not teach savvy, so I can't argue any one of her points.

Not so much biased as not the most knowledgeable when it comes to the hardware. If they can't even make a game that's among the Wii U's most impessive, it's hard to hold their opinion above those who clearly understand the hardware better.

I hear ya. I'm waiting on a big pokemon game for the Wii U, but not some minigame, dungeon or stadium bullcrap. I want a real pokemon adventure on a home console. As for my 3rd game to warrant a buy for a Wii U, I'm not sure. Maybe an exclusive Final Fantasy or resident evil although I see that very unlikely. Or the never-happening official sequel to Super Mario RPG: Legend of the seven stars or at the very least, something Geno related.

trolls only die when you stop replying to them, not with troll spray as they are immune to it!

I don't get why you guys keep trying to prove that he is wrong when he obviously does not care about proof as he is even linking to people saying WiiU is like current gen when there are devs who clearly say it is more powerful! what does that tell you about the poster?

I can't wait for this game and for my copy of Xenoblad to arrive!

Game looks very impressive. People keep replying to a WUM. Fairly simple.

Its clearly a very, very good looking game.

Pointless graphic warz is to blame here.

Because it's the successor of the best JRPG in the last 5 years?
