Enjoy...

Fatslob says hes neutral yet he constantly bashes Wii U and Nintendo then he pulls an "escape" card like; "I want to play those few games that Wii U has" ;...to cover up own agenda and bias, why a PC elitist would even bother to join a console exclusive discussion since he apparently he does not care yet he cares... His life must be boring and most likely has some sort of trauma thus he lashes out on anyone that does not share the same opinion, agenda and bias. Like Microsoft... :3

I am losing my faith in humanity...

It is funny to me how he thinks I claimed that I am a tech expert yet I never said anything like that then he non stops pop us anandtech even after I explained him like five times that was early on, few months ago, if he continues I am going to pop up how he stated a pure rumor as fact and he still does not learn. When I am wrong I admit it , but when things point out to that kind of scenario then I won't back down ultil proven otherwise...

35 watts isn't speculation! It's a proven fact by anandtech. I'm not looking for credibility per se but rather I'm looking for consistency. Those specs seem to match the power consumption of the device at hand. If you knew a thing about chip fabrication and their thermal designs the conclusion would be very easy to come towards. Rather than just call everything speculation you have to make a fine line between that and a hypothesis. I'm sure viktorBBK and pemalite would come to a similar hypothesis and they know a damn lot about semiconductor fabrication.


Yeah yeah man, credibility is everything at this point because all the whooha GAF and you lot are spouting it's all speculation, knowing the power consumption oesn't really back up anything you or your preferred speculator has said as I recall months back they were saying it matched something else, then another thing and quite frankly I don't care about you going on about chips and all that rubbish it's still speculation, you have no concrete evidence behind it all. The whole more with less stance comes across as a get out of jail card tbh.

I couldn't care less about gaf. It doesn't matter if I have conrete evidence. I look for what's the most consistent. The performance so far says the very differently from the possible specs! Why are you getting so defensive ?

I hate to see this discussion devolve so much. :/

Let me rephrase something I've said earlier: I could choose to believe this information, and that would be fine. There's nothing wrong with putting stock in a good theory, especially when it has supporting evidence. Or I can wait for hard confirmation before coming to my own conclusions. Or I could simply not care at all and make my conclusions about the hardware based on whether or not it has games I desperately want to play.

And all of those viewpoints are logical in their own sense, so I'm left wondering why this thread is rapidly becoming devoid of respect, and by extension, respect for logical thought.

Dudes like eyeofcore in this is an eye sore to high tech discussion. If we keep ignorant people like him out we can solve the puzzle more easily without disruptions from him. Others like Teriol keep going on to damage control. 

It's devoid of respect because they can't respect an opposing view of another but yeah you should buy the consoles based on games not hardware. 

You've been banned before for talking down to others. Tread very carefully.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

The Wii U is more efficient than the PS3 and Xbox 360, and has more RAM as well, so of course it'll have better looking games, but honestly, just barely.

In short, Ninjablade was right, the Wii U is on par with current gen, Nintendo fans seriously owe him an apology.

I don't pull escape cards. Unlike you guys I am not loyal or stuck to one platform manufacturers. I go for the games, not after the platform manufacturers like any fanboy would. As for wondering why I join these discussions I'm interested in knowing the hardware. Your the one with the agenda here, I'm just here to give some thoughts. You don't know anything about me in the real but I'm willing to bet we all know your attitude in the real world.

 

Then be quiet and learn if your not some tech expert. BTW you still keep spouting more ignorance even after the fact that anandtech forums corrected you so many times. You'll never admit that your wrong because your here on a quest to damage control for nintendo.

The one who you should be keeping an eye at is eyeofcore that dude keeps getting banned for talking shit to me LMAO. HIs attitude hasn't changed at all even after the ban and what's more is that he didn't even read the rules yet probably. What's even worse about him is that he trolls at youtube making racist remarks too on his channel LOL. Now If those aren't reasons for closely monitoring him like ninjablade then I don't know what is LOL. My attitude may need working up on and I can atleast fix it but for the most part I've learned my lesson.

You're the one getting defensive, I just pointed out that through out the whole year we've had speculation from people declaring it's this that using the same logic you're implying yet months later the whole speculation would change, you yourself from your own reply seem upset about this being brought up. At this point most of us as a result are only taking note from credible sources not people on the internet who claim to be working inside and know secrets about area 51 and so on. Anyone on the net can come across as an insider by taking a bit of info here and some speculation there and wording it right that's the point and one you seem annoyed about, if these so called insiders were really who they say they were then we wouldn't have conflicting speculation to begin with they would of got the info right off the go. As it stands they could be the cleaner in Gearboxes offices who overheard someone else speculating for all we know and the whole cycle seems to be one person says something other people say the same and follow it until it changes much later, whether you care about GAF is irrelevant as that's where all of this started and came from.

Your own official sources will never hand out secret info to anyone so why bother ?

@Bold I ain't too sure about that LOL. After all people keep saying that the internet is filled with sony fans. 

Conflicting speculation ? You either take it or leave it and BTW some hackers already confirmed what thw WII Us CPU is, I also wonder if he's just speculating too ? /sarcasm

FYI some of those rumors never change and infact would become a fact. 

Your guys at shin'en didn't deny the specs the WII U had, they only confirmed that it wasn't downgraded. A part of the "anonymous" rumors are being furthered by the the truth such as it's low power consumption and performance shown so far. 



I feel like Nintendo's at their best when they focus on gameplay and stay away from trying to match Sony and MS on graphical levels. All they have to do is use things like bright cartoony graphics and cel-shading to mask any "deficiencies", and they'll be fine. None of their big franchises are even conducive to realism, except maybe Metroid Prime.



I just can't believe the amount of people arguing & getting banned for this topic. There are many criticizing XB1 and their 1.2 TFLOPs (cloud not included, lol) for being "much weaker" than PS4's 1.84 TFLOPs...so tell me, why fuss over 176 or 320 or 500 or...whatever TFLOPS, if Nintendo is much weaker than the comp. regardless? Waste of energy IMO.

The bigger issue, is Nintendo failing to capitalize off of Wii's gaudy profits, and becoming more competitive in terms of power (AS IN, no degradation of performance for next gen 3rd party games). Nintendo is not trying to steal PS or MS fans, which is what it should have aimed for, after improving their brand name in the home console market with Wii's success. They squandered their 1 yr head start as true "next gen" system, instead offering performance closer to pS360, WITH A MORE EXPENSIVE PRICE on top. Big,big fail, and it showed since most ppl were not fooled. Only Ninty fans (like myself) bought in. So, once again, it will happily play 2nd fiddle/companion to PS4/XB1 (i say that b/c its "non threatening" to MS/Sony's product).

For this reason, I will stop buying Wii U 3rd party games at full price, once next gen begins, and instead, MAYBE, buy them when the price drops to $30 or lower. I will gladly pat Ninty on the head and continue buying their 1st party gems at launch, but if they want serious 3rd party support, then they cannot give us inferior versions. I honestly hope Nintendo learns their lesson in this regard...Power should NEVER be sacrificed.
