Please don't respond because I've been bored. I have said nothing about the PS4. I said the Wii U is very powerful and the PS3/X360 is not in it's league. You're the ignorant person that's trying really hard to get the PS4 to rub shoulders with the Wii U. This is a Nintendo thread and I'm not thinking about the Playstation 4.

Define "powerful" please ... If it's any platform with similar specs or more capable to the WII U then I guess an unthrottled tegra K1 would fit the bill but no one in their right minds would even consider an ultra mobile platform to be "powerful" for a start. If it's whatever retro studio says then they probably don't hold high technical standards in regards to feats of the platforms.

You don't hold high technical standards. lol Again, I will believe them before I believe you. You're the first person that I read compare Tegra K1 to the Wii U (like you really know what you're talking about). This thread is about Mario Kart 8 pushing the limit of Wii U's power, so stick to the topic.

So far none, sadly. I was looking for them, too. Not even a gif.

This thread feels incomplete without them.

Red Dead Redemption looks way better than MK8. FACT.

Outstanding sand effects.

I'm Pretty sure I know what is and isn't powerful and I wasn't asking you to believe anything ... LOL

Since you choose to believe any of the words retro studio or shin'en spits out then your assertion that the PS360 isn't in the same league as the WII U is just as bad as the others saying that the WII U is weaker than the PS360. Unlike you I do know what I'm talking about but since your obvious attempt at brushing off a valid comparison failed just shows you being insecure about your own beliefs. Ironic how your telling me to stick on topic when your one of the first people to derail this thread just to go up in arms being all defensive of the WII U's power.

I'm pretty sure I know who to believe and who to not believe and I will go with Retro & Shin'en. lol You're very insecure, this is a Mario Kart thread for the sake of being butthurt. I'm pretty sure I know the Wii U's power, I own one.

Your relentless rebukes just show that you're the one insecure in this thread ... Unlike you I wasn't here bringing up the PS360 acting all defensive in trying to reassure an assertion. Nobody has to own a WII U to judge it's power, all that's needed is clear cut analysis.
