I'm not quite sure how you managed to get "confirms Wii-U is a next gen console" from the quote "in between current gen and next gen consoles".

You've even bolded the line which says that.


Well this is the second game they confirmed that they have a game visually above current-gen PS360 with that along that this is Ninntendo's newest home console confirms it is next-gen!!!  Anyways just because X1 will be slightly less powerful than the PS4 (don't kill me MS fanboys) doesn't mean X1 won't be next-gen.  Wii U is definitely the least powerful of the 3 consoles but it won't have the same amount of diffrence that was found on Wii vs PS360.  Hell, the Wii U already runs all their games  consistently on 720p vs some sub-HD games found on PS360.

Any proof for that claim? Cause of course you mean games that are multiplatform between PS360 and Wii U, not some games on PS360 that weren't released on Wii U, which would make the comparison plain stupid, right?

All games on Wii U run at least @720p. Blacklist, for exemple, only run @720p on Wii U.

The Wii U also has a few sub-HD-games: http://forum.beyond3d.com/showpost.php?p=1676919&postcount=5

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 = 880x720 (2xAA)
Darksiders 2 = 1152x640 (post-AA)
Need For Speed: Most Wanted (2012) = 1280x704 (post-AA)
Ninja Gaiden: Razor’s Edge = dynamic up to 1280x720 (dynamic 2xAA)
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed = 1024x576 (post-AA)

you show him evidence and he will completely ignore it then go off to a tangent. 


It's called spin...he almost got me lol!!! Anyways, I have a feeling he is actually Mr. Red Dead Redemptions alt.  I can't quite prove it yet but I have a very strong hunch!!! 


Are you even allowed to say that?

Anyway it is good to see that Dev's are gradually using the Wii U's extra power. I suspect when they get use to developing for the wii u  we will get bigger improvements in the visual department


I actually use it as to make sure Mr. he who should not be named doesn't come in to derail the thread about how the Wii U is half the power of the PS360 and how certain N64/PS1 games are better than certain exclusive games made for the Wii U.  I have been told that you mention N1N6A 8L^D3 name and risk him coming in to derail the thread.  *shivers* I can hang with his suspected alt...but his other personality takes it to a whole other level!!!

Who the hell is that dude ? 


Shut your eyes and maybe he'll wake up!!! LOL...I sure hope I am wrong about you being an alt. as a visit from our Ninja friend is enough to give me headaches for weeks.

Doesn't have to be an alt.  A lot of these kids do things that their peers do... in groups, etc.  Kind of like a group of kids bullying.

I would think that Ubisoft would have a better understanding of the hardware by now that they are able to push it a bit more than previous titles. Things should keep getting better from here on out (hopefully).

The fact that it is released as Nintendo's next generation of hardware after the Wii generation of hardware confirms it is a next generation console.

Just because there are morons who do not know the definition of generation doesn't mean they are making any sort of valid argument.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

ubisoft has said many times, that they consider the wiiu a next gen system. the wiiu is just the first one out the gate, like the 360 was on the wii and ps3, if people out there wana use the logic that the wiiu isnt next gen for what ever reason, then u they should also consider the 360 part of gen 6 since it launched a year before the ps3. all anyone should ever consider is the games and having fun with them. that is and always will be for me the most important thing. just my 2 cents :)

Please stop making sense. This is the internet you know, it's not allowed.
