Oh noes.. it's the end of the Wii U.. LOL.. that's okay.. a lot of people don't buy the games this company makes.. apparently it's a software thing..



Nintendo Wii by generations...

1. Wii

2. Wii U

3. Wii O U

Predictions made by gamers concerning the current Nintendo line up of games.

Pikmen 3= Little Bump to nothing. (Got Little Bump)

Wind Waker HD= Won't sell anything (The explosion happened here and at one time 4 Wii U games was in the Amazon top 100)

Super Mario 3D World= Won't help at all looks cheap. (Currently the most sought after Wii U game and continuing the Wii U increase.)

Apparently, certain individual here, who's basing his assumptions on random beliefs of how hardware actually works, think that WiiU is only half XOne...

So, what he's basically saying is that WiiU's GPU is comparable to:

4770@750MHz, 640:32:16 VLIW5 40nm part or 667O@800MHz, 480:24:16 VLIW5 40nm part...

Or perhaps he thinks that WiiU is 28nm fab, and that Nintendo downclocked 7750 to 550MHz, 512:32:16 GCN part?

Cause THAT'S around what is needed to be half the XOne in performance when you look at real life GPU tests.

I'd say it is truly amazing how Nintendo managed to cram so much in such a small silicon with such a low TDP, without resorting to some exotic alien tech. Except, unless in imagination of certain people, those numbers and real life don't really match up, so what's inside WiiU is nowhere near that.

So, while that individual can keep correcting my statements as much as he like (I have quite a good laugh out of it), it doesn't change the fact that WiiU is quite below what he keeps trying to convince less tech educated people around here, all based on his complete ignorance in how hardware actually works in real life.

It's funny (hilarious, actually) how this individual doesn't even try to refute your (accurate) claims anymore... At this point he's basically swinging his arm in the air and screaming "y'all see what im talking about, just you wait. Just.You.Wait."  

And it's depressing to think that even after this exchange (not really since he seems to only listen to himself) of information he will continue on his ever going crusade for Nintendo. Sigh.

Sure thing buddy, give us all a call when your long awaited day arrives (read: never).

laugh all you want, your smile will vanish soon.

I dont get it. 

 

Wii U is out and will be out for a year wen launch Xbox One and PS4 games arrive.

Ryse, Forza 5 and Infamous Second son absolutely blow anyting Wii U has out or has coming out away. BLOWS it away completely from a power point of view. 

Its not even close at all. 

In fact it reminds me  of first time I saw Wii vs 360 and Ps3 games. If not moreso. The cloth, the scale, the texture res, the amount onscreen, the particle effects. All look generations ahead of Wii U. Look at Pikmin 3. That game looks average before its out.

If this is the only way you can refute the information in his post then you shouldn't even bother arguing in future.

Bring forth a valid argument for your "X1 is 2x WiiU", refute his technical statements with your own information/data and actually put forth a valid argument that isn't simply opinion put forward as fact.

Otherwise, this debate is completely pointless.

What a truly brilliant retort. Your eloquent, thorough debunking of his entire argument actually brought a tear to my eye.

You continue to amaze me. Never stop posting.

the only crusade I see here is from haters that try to diminish wii u at every oportunity.

and until he shows confirms me what's inside the wii u, the only accurate information we have are the games running on wii u.

my valid points were said many pages before and I shall not repeat myself.

you clearly haven't seen footage from X. and a hint for you: even p360 vs ps4/xone do not look like wii vs ps360 because of the smaller difference, let alone wii u wich is quite ahead of ps360.

the game syou mentioned merely look better. saying they BLOW wii u away is just a huge exaggeration. and I would highly recomend waiting until those games are out before judging. we already saw what happened with deep down.

better than keep wasting my time explaining again.

No big deal. Bethesda games are best on PC anyways (Elder Scrolls especially). Can't beat the mods.

Puts all console version to complete and utter shame.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)
