I understand that.

but then leaving it out makes sense? Totally not.   Either make a comparison that does work  and if you cant then dont do it because leaving it out just makes the whole chart completely useless.

Thats what I ment with its like "only 3 cores"  its a different situation yes but ignoring more than 3 x1 cores would make the whole chart pointless.

If you dont want to add it to the DDR3 ram at least make a seperate "bar" and do some explanation or whatever. I mean the chart compares 2GB of DDR2 ram on WiiU with 8GB of DDR5 on PS4?  But not 32mb or whatever of edram? Seems like double standards.  Either both does not make sense or it does.

Funny for Nintendo too. All the way to the bank with the millions they'll make off of this.

Except Nintendo have made an anual loss for the last three consecutive years... :p

The discussion was about Mario Kart 8, lol. Are you saying Mario Kart 8 won't make a profit? That would bring it full circle by having me laugh again.

Oh i'm sure MK8 will make a profit, it doesn't exactly look like a particularly expensive to make game so it's unlikely it needs to sell more than a few hundred thousands copies to break even, but compared to how much they used to make i doubt they are exactly going to be running to the bank laughing :P

Still, any profit that can help them avoid another loss is nothing but good ^^

Agreed, hopefully with the late releases and early releases of next year coupled with the Wii U no longer selling at a loss will result in a good year. If they go back to profiting they may be more willing to money hat (which I think we can both agree they REALLY need to freaking do). There had also better be a freaking reveal or even just confirm that Fatal Frame V will be coming! (That has nothing to do with sales as it won't really boost sales much if at all, I just really want it, lol.)

What's rediculously funny, believing marketing PR or being able to see it for yourself ? What's a better proof than an actual image of a game ? Im curious.

Of course the first step is being able to sort out supersampled bullshot and ingame screenshots. Hopefully Nintendo doesn't supersample their screenshot often, and that's a thumbs up for that. Pixel counters are "going off of screens" all the time when they get the right ones.

that was my point though, the wiiU games are 1080p but still dont look as good and it comes down to it doesnt have the power to do 1080p with all effects and everything turned on.  1080p really means nothing to gaming beyond marketing.   The perfect example is Thief while its not the best graphically youd be hard pressed to see the difference between the ps4 and x1 and the ps4 is 1080p x1 is 900p, honestly i rather have 720p and a rock steady framerate then a developer force 1080p and have the framerate all over the place.

Resolution makes a huge difference...........

Maybe its not something you particurally care about, but to say that it doesn't have a major impact on image quality is incorrect. 

Higher resolutions are really only useful for the 3 aforementioned qualities ...

1. To reduce geometry aliasing and achieve a clearer image.

2. Higher resolution textures will make very effective use of higher resolutions as it can drastically increase detail in tandem with it. 

3. Larger draw distance and screen size will also largely benefit from higher resolutions as it will be very easy to resolve far away objects. 

If all of these three conditions are met then these assertions should be taken as a fact that a higher resolution will make for a better gaming experience and is JUST as important as having higher framerates.
