i really don't hate the wiiu , i think zelda and mario are some of the greatest franshise in gaming and some of the best games i ever played, i just hate when people say it's more powerful then 360/ps3 when MP games havent provin that, once i see 5 Mp  games looking better and released at the same time, i will admit wii u is more powerful but if that doesn't happen will you guys admit you were wrong. you guys can blame the devs but can't blame the hardware.


This reminds me of when a white guy says the n-word or uses a racist slur, then claims he's not the least bit racist and said it because he has black friends.

what a stupid comparison, the only thing i said bad about wiiu is it will fail in sales and it's graphics are on par with current gen, i gave my reasons why i think  it will fail in sales and guess what it's happening so far, i even predicted 59,000 in the npd thread first page.



What?! It looks better with six months more of refinement and polishing on a GPU that is two-three notches above that of the PS3 and 360? I call shenanigans.

I'm not saying it could be technically better than the PC version, but it's possibly it could look 'prettier' if they were able to tweak/improve the look of the lighting effects and spend some extra time on the overall look. I'm certainly not saying the GPU is more powerful than a good PC card, it's certainly not. On the other hand, if the PC version was a quick port from the 360 version with some higher res textures, it's possible it could look better on the WiiU if they spent more time on lighting and the overall look for this particular version. I wasn't terribly impressed with the PC version, I really hated the blur effect in particular. As it's been said, there's not a massive visual difference between the PC version and the 360 version to begin with.

Actually, I have no doubt that WiiU version looks better than PS360 - after all, it's enough to put high-res textures and it will look better.

"There's a switch in our build pipeline that says 'use PC textures' and we flipped that and that was all," Hamadi laughs. "I can take no credit for that, it was literally ten minutes' work... we are using PS3/360 geometry. It's just the textures we upgraded."

As for lighting - PC version has lot of seetings to play with, so not sure what seetings are used for PS360 versions, but in both DF video and screenshot comparison, although there is difference , it's nothing drastic like on those Wii vs 360 shots....hence my initial statement that I find them very stange. I did notice however from DF's PS360 Face-off shots that PS seems to have worse lighting than 360 and PC.

Anyway, I'm glad Ninty figured out they have to provide some incentive for 3rd parties to actually put extra effort into doing good ports for WiiU. Just wish that somewhat better hardware made that unnecessary in the first place...

Here is some full HD pics for comparison, it's not perfect, but people expecting it to look much better on wii u will be in for a rude surprise when DF does a comparison. you can view then in full HD by copy and past.

Those are not FullHD.

It's actually pretty impressive. I wonder how it stacks up in terms of performance though.



yes they are 720p just copy url and past on web browser.

30fps@720p would be my guess. I hope they manage to keep the framerate stable, though...

You do realize FullHD is 1080p, aka 1920x1080?



OMGosh OMGosh im getting wet!!!!
