Any links?

As always? As I remember right, the difference between XBOX and Gamecube was irrelevant. Although you're right, that the graphical difference between Sony (PS2) and Nintendo (GC) was huge back then.


Not really. There weren't many  GameCube games that looked better thn GOW2 on PS2 (RE4 is the only one i can think of)

You're confusing graphics with aesthetics. One is objective, one is subjective. Thus,  aesthetically beautiful Wii games cant be counted among best looking 7th gen games

The new twins look to be about 2ishx to 3x more powerful than the WiiU. But remember the law of diminishing returns. If you compare two of the same games, sure you will see it, but you can still have pretty games on both. Going from 480i to 720P or 1080P was dramatic for a number of reasons. But have you ever compared 720P to 1080P? It's not that overwhelming and doesn't knock your socks off.

Bud doesn't Pickman 3 have some photo realistic looking stuff? If I had to guess it would be less than the differences between the Wii and the Xbox360/PS3. As they can all scale to 1080p.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Graphics are not just tech. They're the marriage of tech and art. You don't necessarily need amazing tech to look among the best.

Except that this time around they literally aren't. If you want to talk pure graphics, the Wii U will be able to pull off pretty much every single graphical trick and effect that the other two systems can.

Ok, then where is Battlefield 4 with 64 players on 60FPS on WiiU? Where is Frostbite enginge? Where is Unreal Engine 4? Wheres Witcher 3? All of those games and engines dont exist on WiiU because of its massive hardware limitations. And if i compare the launch U games with PS4 launch games,,

The only area where Wii U could wind up lacking in certain cases, are things that involve tons of shit happening in a given game world at once, or advanced physics effects that might have to be scaled down a bit. It was a joke when it was originally stated, but the meme is now going to ring true, that in the next gen "graphics whores will become physics whores instead". As someone else in here mentioned, it is going to become all about the nuances.

If thats the only thing you think WiiU was lacking, then i dont wanna have this conversation with you...

Every single thing you've seen from Wii U thus far, even Mario Kart 8, is just "first generation" Wii U software. No console puts forth it's best looking games in the first gen. Give it a couple years, and you will see games on Wii U that will make you say "wow", no matter how jaded you are. And by the end of the gen, there will (gauranteed) be Wii U titles that will be counted among the best looking graphically of the entire console generation. Wii accomplished that being a much weaker SD console with several titles. Wii U will surely accomplish the same with much more modern hardware.

There are no Wii games among the best looking titels this gen, not even close. And i doubt we'd see a Wii U game among the best looking titles in 2018 or even 2017. Wii U is a buffed PS3 at best, and i doubt it gonne come anywhere close to being competitive later on during the next gen

Frostbite isn't on Wii U because of EA's spite. No more, no less.

"Best-looking" is a subjective term in and of itself. What you're thinking of is "most technically proficient".
