Don't be silly. We're in gen X&Y. Everybody knows that. Pokemon X & Y.


Pokemon generations are the only ones that count.

I'm okay with this.  Hope the plot is a little serious this time around, Black and White was going in the right direction.

Hope the localization is improved, too. It's been getting better, but still not the best Nintendo has to offer.

Right, I'm just saying the title was misleading for the thread.  I kind of expect a next gen console would look better than last gen.


...and that's what Ubisoft said numerous times already.  The visuals of AC and Watchdogs will exceed the visuals found on current-gen systems.  I don't know why you are so upset about this?  What is it you wanted them to say...that the Wii U is visually impaired compared to the PS360?  Will that make you happy?

There there, no need to get upset.  No pretty sure his point is that your title does not match up with what the content of the thread shows.  Title suggests that PS4/Wii U/ Xbox One are all in the same boat, yet the thread suggests that Ubisoft feels that Wii U is in its own boat right in the middle of the PS4/Xbox One and PS360.  Aside from that, that he thinks that the Wii U version should look better on principle than PS360 version because it is a next gen console.  


Ok...I know, it's just that there are so many 'Mr. Red Dead Redemption' that do nothing but enter Nintendo threads to spin things negatively.  They have a sick and sad kick when they get to bash anything positive about Nintendo. In fact they visit Nintendo threads more than they do their favorite system. If that was not Nyanks intent then I apppologize to him. However, if it was his intent to spin things negatively then I was actually quite civil in how I answered him.

The Wii U being in between current and next gen consoles doesn't mean anything.

If I said I had between $1 and $100,000,000, that's not saying that I have $50,000,000. That's just saying that I have some amount in between those two figures, and that's what was quoted.

We already know the Wii U was more powerful than the PS360.  We also don't care.

no, you don't care. Don't generalize.

So you care that the Wii U is more powerful than the PS360?

So if I go by the poll it seems like 12% see the Wii U as equal or less than current-gen systems.
While 21% view the Wii U as being equal or almost equal to next-gen systems due to diminishing returns or only a marginal or insignificant difference ala GCN vs original Xbox.
Most 66% believe that Wii U is somewhere in between PS360 and X1/PS4...with 40% responding that it is closer to the middle having a difference that maybe quite noticeable compared to next-gen but most definitely still above PS360. In short it will look like DC vs N64/PS1 when compared to PS360, but would look like DC vs GCN/original Xbox when it comes to "true next-gen" X1/PS4.

Do you care that the Wii is weaker than the PS360?

unless you are living under a rock the past year or so, that seems to be the hot topic on the gaming front.  The second hottest topic is X1 vs PS4...but not as hot as Wii U vs PS360...or X/Bayonetta 2 vs Red Dead Redemption.

I saw the current gen version of Watch dogs and it looks pretty bad, which is not cool since GTA5 looks amazing in the same consoles, so, blame it on Ubi.
