I don't think ubisoft stated the wii u was half way between current and ps4/xbox one, they stated that watch dogs was between the two including visually. Then they retracted that statement to clarify a slightly different statement.

http://wiiudaily.com/2013/10/watch-dogs-wii-u-gamepad/

I personally don't believe the wii u is between. I believe overall the wii u is about current gen in performance and I am a wii u owner. I already own a ps3 and 360 and have visually compared many games on my projector screen. The wii u simply isn't performing beyond 360 or PS3. In saying that I clearly realise the wii u gpu has a feature set beyond 360 and ps3 and the wii u has 1GB+32MB dedicated to the gaming side which is twice that of 360/PS3. However CPU wise the wii u is clearly a bit weaker and if the recent forum postings on neogaf are right the wii u gpu is only about 176gflops, half the 352gflops figure often stated. They have made the case that the wii u gpu simply isn't consuming enough power to be 352 gflops and examination of an x-ray of the gpu seems to confirm there are only 3 possible configurations. 176gflops is the only answer that seems to tick all the boxes.

I guess my point is the ps3 and 360 have as much right to be compared to ps4 and xbone in performance terms as the wii u.

As long as the wii u provides my Nintendo fix with games like windwaker hd, mario, mario kart etc I'm happy though. I do feel this talk of the wii u being comparable to ps4 and xbox one is getting a bit ridiculous now. It clearly isn't that powerful and the vast majority of wii u multiformat games actually perform a little bit worse than 360 or ps3. You only have to look at eurogamer faceoffs or lense of truth etc.


NFS using PC assets and Trine 2 not being able to run on PS360 pretty much proves your opinion wrong on that one. After all, if it was only on the same level, it would be exceeding what they are capable of.

I think you mean the 176gflops is the only one you will accept. Also about the "break down" you cant just look at part of the chip and know what the whole chip does. They skip areas that they dont know what they do so how can they properly judge it at all?

Oh yeah we want Knack, keep your Killer Instinct away :rolls eyes:


Why so rude about this?  

Even if you don't like the way they look i still see no reason to be rude about it.

I put Killer Instinct because it was once a Nintendo franchise and I put Knack because it fits the artstyle of games that do well on Nintendo consoles.


I was playing with you and being sarcastic. 

 

Killer Instinct belongs to me, I'll take you to court for that mf.

What do you mean about Trine 2 not being able to run on PS3/360? The game is on both those consoles...

edit: I'm not disagreeing that Wii U is more powerful, just wanting clarification of what you mean by they can't run it. I suspect it will be noticibly more powerful once the devs get their heads around it properly. Mario 3D World looks absolutely stunning so much detail on those goombas! :D

Probably meant the same polish as the Wii U.  I honestly think despite not being optimized for the system; most multi-plat ports on the Wii U were better!!!

I would love to see Crimson Dragon on Wii U. I was holding out hope that Sega would do a new actual Panzer Dragoon, and I suppose technically they still could, but if the creator is long gone, it wouldn't be the same.

Only Ninja Gaien Z in your list could do well on Wii u compared to xboxone/ps4

You don't think Japanese RPG's like Kingdom Hearts of Final Fantasy could do better on the WiiU then XBOne? Remember MS has almost no share in the Japanese market, a place where Final Fantasy XIII has sold more then 1 game per 5 consoles.

The rest probably wouldn't do that well, but they already made a FIFA 13, why not make a FIFA 14?

Topics say ps4/one games not Xbox one only also Kingdoms Hearts and Final Fantasy are also popular in west,i don't think people will buy in west those game on Wii u.

I didn't say Fifa should not be release on wii u i just say people would buy Fifa more on PS4/One

Yes I know, which adds justification to my arguement. If the WiiU version would sell as well, if not better then an XBOne version, why not make a Wii U version?

As for people not buying the game on WiiU, a) WiiU owners probably have a larger portion of gamers <15 years old, the demograph Kingdom Hearts is most popular in and b) Kingdom Hearts sells as well in Japan as it does in North America when you take into consideration the smaller population of Japan c) Hand held Kingodm Hearts games do as good on Nintendo systems as PSP

Kingdom Hearts 3 would have done well on WiiU, it's not exactly pushing the PS4/One graphically.

As for FIFA, I agree, it's just silly. They made a FIFA 13, it uses the same engine as FIFA for PS3/One, this is more of a protest from EA then anything.

Those games would all do well on a Nintendo Platform, but I was refering to multiplatform games. Games that devs could have made work on WiiU.

Crimson Dragon being a spiritual successor to the Panzer Dragoon series would probably do well on a Nintendo platform, since it has SEGA roots, and fighting games typically do well on Nintendo platforms. Soul Calibur 2 sold 75% as well on Gamecube as it did on PS2, and it sold 50% better then the XB version. So considering that Killer Instinct has Nintendo roots, it probably would have done well on WiiU as well.

I think Kingdom Hearts III would sell decently on the WiiU, but it'd be downgraded graphically.
