Lets be honest here.  At 176 GFLOPS, the Wii U would not have ANY better looking ports (NFS:MW) or games like X, Mario Kart, etc.  Saying so just makes you sound like an idiot.

I cannot believe you're 28.  I call BS, because you post like you're 12. 


maybe you should go read the tech thread before you insulting people, if the wiiu has 176 glops they are more effeciant then xenos, and add 512mb of ram, and they would be able to achieve 360 like visuals but these are tech saying  that, you know the person that actually payed money to get the wiiu gpu and many others as well, i guess there all idiots and your the smart one.

Maybe you should try to develop a better understanding of what you read, versus simply regurgitating whatever fits your agenda.  No one on those NeoGaf threads knows EXACTLY what's going on under the hood.

Maybe you should read the Wii U GPU teardown thread after 6/10 (starts on page 127).  Many people on there are starting to realize this console is closer to their "350" benchmark than "176".  Just looking at the 3 games mentioned in this thread, it is easy to see the step up.

PS4?  No, of course not.  Not even close.  But stop with the PS3/360 crap.

even fourth storm from neogaf, the person that made the pic of the wiiu gpu possible thinks its 176 gflops, the majority of tech heads with out a biased agenda think its 176 gflops, best case scenerio is 350 gflops.

The "tech heads" are still making assumptions based on incomplete information. They can't all be right since so many disagree.

thats people thats mostly desagree have heavy biased and can't handle the truth that the wiiu is on par with current gen, if the wiiu is a 320sp gpu every multiplatform game should have a clear advantage, but thats not the case, everything points to a 160 shader gpu and watch dogs and assian creed 4 will confrim this if they are not much better then the current gen versions.

So you're just choosing to disregard the views those whose views don't serve your agenda. Sure, everyone agrees, except the ones who don't. Again, you referring to anyone else as biased is rather hilarious, frankly.

THIS x 1000.  I'm reading the same damn threads as you ninja, but apparently you only read every 3rd post.  



Sigh. Starting to realize I should take my own advice:

"Never argue with an idiot. They will simply drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience."

---

I think I'm going to go start spamming other threads with complete ignorance, and then not be rational whatsoever when other are. It seems to work I have to admit. You're NEVER going to get Ninjablade to change his stance. And even if you can one day proove xyz benchmark, he'll move his goalposts.  

It's fun to argue with him for a few mintues, but then you realize you're basically arguing with a wall.

I think a few people on these forums suffer from these two things *cough* Ninjablade *cough*.  I'm sure there are some more formal pyschological terms, but they escape me at the moment so I'll just describe them in lamens terms.

1.       You (Wii U) can't even compare to my worst (360, PS3), how dare you try to consider yourself comparable to my best (PS4,X1) attitude.  By artificially placing the wall of comparison further back (360,PS3), they feel it protects the integrity and greatness of that which they prefer (PS4,X1).  I could provide an example here but I think this is pretty self explanatory.

 

2.       Moving goal posts.  You can NEVER win.  You’re weaker than current systems.  Later on, you’re on par with current systems.  Later, you’re BARELY more powerful than current system.  You could prove tomorrow (official announcement lets say) that the Wii U is 600 ish GFLOPS.  Certain people on here would say “Yeah, but you cannot notice a difference between that and the 360, it’s not enough.  In order to notice the difference in graphics from last gen, you need about, 1.2 to 1.8 TFLOPS.”  Wow, how convenient!  Again, moving goal posts.  In many cases, point 2 ties in with point 1.

Yet not a single game look better than halo 4,





... excuse me, point me to that game that is superior to halo 4 plox, thk you good sir

I never said there was one.  I just found it highly coincidental that he stated the exact situation you posted and it took only 3 posts later to happen.



which part? the one about the X1 and the ps4 I didn't post about in this thread? or the part about me saying wii u is less powerful than current gen which I didn't, or on par which yet again I didn't. He pretty much post all possibilities what the hell were you expecting


Lol even though I get g911Turbo's post (swaying arguments making it pretty much a damned if you do damned if you don't scenario for Wii U), Cablebox is right too.  If just about every argument is listed, how is he not going to post an example g911Turbo used?

If one poster did all of the arguments g911Turbo said people are doing that would make a good point that that poster is just hating because they are inconsistent and finding any way, even contradicting ways, to discredit Wii U.  But if one person uses one example which is pretty valid even though it's only an opinion (the point that nothing looks better on Wii U than Halo 4 automatically suggests that the 3 games listed in OP can indeed by done on PS360) how is he doing exactly what g911Turbo said?  How else is the argument supposed to be argued for someone who thinks Wii U is underpowered and the games listed can be done on current gen systems?

Well, to be fair my post was aimed at certain individuals.  Also, it only brings up 2 points.  The false wall of comparison, and moving goal posts.

 

And ANY arguement is made better when you do it tactfully, instead of just spit "venom" so to speak (your post for example, does well by raising a point without being super abrasive, so well done)


Thanks, I try to be open minded to both sides of a debate.  And for this specific argument I believe both sides raise valid points.  I just think that a lot of people see things with a black and white mentality and won't acknowledge any opinion good or bad that contradicts their own.  And it seems that especially on the internet, debates are won by the harshest, most aggressive and extreme stances rather than a balanced perspective.  It's like in life, a lot of people will think that the loudest person won the fight despite the content of their claims.  Pretty amusing, really.

Great thread.

The Nintendo WiiU is more powerful than the PS3/XBOX60, and pictures can't really tell the truth. It has better specs and just recently updated.
The games are starting to look good and slowly distancing its self from last Gen.
The sad thing is, third party are not going to help and the PS4/XBOX are just so powerful compared to it.


But they're not, haven't you got the latest memo from the resident tech expert here? Xone is only 2x, and PS4 is only 3x WiiU...

 

I should have figure as much, that the gap would be that small.

Figures.

So we know what kind of better visuals to expect in the ONE & PS4 compare to Wii U when they all get fully figured out by Devs. And you just know that the little difference in visuals while playing on a TV will make more people consider adding a Wii U to their collection this Gen.

You realized what just happened there, right? He tricked you into showing pics that demonstrate GoW3's graphical shortcomings.

 

dude hasn't shown me that PS4 or whatever puts current gen games out to pastuer.  In fact, he proves my point that diminishing returns are hitting the next-gen systems!!!

dude you have no idea what your talking about, and you post sub hd pics, compare resident evil 4 to grand theft auto 4 to 360/ps3, deep down will blow away those linear games you keep comparing too open world games.


That Resident Evil 6 pic looks more worse then Resident Evil Revelations 3D, except for the metal ventilation pipes.

That might be RE 4.

 

Sorry if you were being sarcastic...my batteries in the sarcastic meter are being used in a Wii remote.

Mate, I was being sarcastic there...thought it was quite obvious. You still haven't dug into the matter for yourself, it seems...

They are not clocked at the same speed, for start, not that it matters much.

 


I know they are not clocked the same, but the Wii U is ahead in major firmware updates to process so much more, but the PS4 has more cores to neutralize any advantage the Wii U might of have.

And I said that there will still be much more processing on its competitors anyways. (read bold in quote)

The point is, that the gap isn't as big as a lot of you think it is, but there is still a big gap, just not as big as you currently think perhaps.

I see you post from time to time about hardware, and I'm afraid it's too obvious from your posts that you know very little about how stuff works (mistaking 1 core from APU for GPU being obvious pointer to that).

I strongly suggest, for start, to dig through some threads here (Superchunk's comparison thread is, mostly, accurate enough) if you really want to learn a bit or two about PS4/XOne/WiiU.

Oh, and unlike what some people here living in Phantasy Kingdom believe, the gap between them is, unfortunately, really big - but that's what you get when you ditch successful Wii design, and instead of better innards you go for Gamepad.

The Wii U is around 1.25 GHz a core on pre-install firmware.

The PS4 is like 1.64 GHz a core on pre-install firmware.

The Wii U has a 3 or 4 core IBM POWER 7 CPU.

The PS4 has a 8 core AMD APU that will most likely use 7 cores to do CPU functionalities, while 1 core will be clocked at 800 MHz as a basic GPU.

I already knew this stuff without the threads, but AMD processes less because of how it process stuff.....for example, my Windows 7 Labtop has a AMD CPU so it can't emulate DS games, but if I had a Windows 7 with any other CPU, then I would be able to emulate DS games. IBM POWER 7 CPU is more of the opposite in processing quality, but the PS4 is clocked at an additional around 0.4 GHz, but e Wii U is ahead in major firmware updates and the Wii U has its GPGPU guarantee to do all the game physics, but the PS4 is sporting 2 to 3 cores more for CPU functionality over the Wii U which still makes the PS4 boss with room to spare and sacrifice to keep proper functionality. And this is best case scenario for Wii U.

Plus for the past 5 years Sony has just been buying the weakest technology, like the PS Vita AMD CPU & 512 MB DRAM (which is the worst 512 MB RAM but also the cheapest).

The Wii U specs seem to currently be where the 3DS & Vita use to be. We use to thought the 3DS & PS Vita had 2-core 200 MHz CPUs, and then we found out the PS Vita had 4-cores and then we found out it was 1 GHz a core, and then we found out the 3DS is 1 GHz and then we later on found out the 3DS CPU is also 1 GHz a core. (of course they are both underclock below 500 MHz a core on pre-install firmware) this explains both handhelds being $250 each, which also explains how there is only a 20 million polygons difference between the 2 handhelds"

Anyways we know more about the Wii U & PS4 around release then we did about the Vita & 3DS. But they wouldn't be wasting so much RAM that clocks the GPU at 800 MHz if they were to only clock it at 550 MHz, plus the Wii U GPGPU doesn't seem to drain that much Hz to be running at 800 MHz. We use to thought the 3DS & Vita did 15.3 & 33 Million Polygons, but then we found out it was actually: 3DS = 160Mtriangle/s & PS Vita = 140Mtriangle/s. And we use to thought the PICA200 was 200 MHz because of overheating but then we found out it only drains 0.5 Hz at 400 MHz max clock frequency.

Plus the Wii U seems to use a custom made GPU like the GameCube, which means it will use its Custom Made GPU to do 3D while the PS4 has to use one of its CPU function cores to do 3D but still will have most of that core to use for other stuff.

Its best to wait 2 years after release of Hardware to truly get a sense of Hardware Specs, if history of 8th Gen systems has thought us anything.

LOL for me not picking up on it.

So it is something like 5 to 10 times more powerful then Wii U as I earlier thought after all, right?
