Going through the article and comments shots were fired at Sony and MS first, just saying.

I don't think so, everyone is just making silly jokes like "Wii U haz more gmaez that run at 60 frames than Xbone and PS4", yet they don't consider other factors, like the fact that those two consoles are more powerful than Wii U, so obviously they are jokes, it's people just trolling and making fun of the situation. 

"Why is it that the Wii U can handle a solid 60fps but the PS4 and Xbox One can't?"

2nd comment. Ignorant at best, trolling at worst.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

Captain Toad's levels are tiny. This is like people declaring Marble Blast Ultra the best looking 7th gen game.

Pretty much every great looking game uses tricks and sacrifices to get there, from the controlled cameras of God of War and Heavy Rain, to the small scale of Captain Toad or Art of Balance. It doesn't negate their looks.

Obvious joke is obvious.  People are just way too sensative and defensive over the box that sits under their TV, frankly.

And how is that making shots at Microsoft and Sony? They are just trolling/making fun, dude; this is what happens when comments without any kind of substance are taken too seriously: a regular console wars discussion is started in a technical analysis of a Toad game. That's really not necessary, we know that Xbox One and PS4 are more powerful than the Wii U, so why do we bother trying to figure out why the "Why is it that the Wii U can handle a solid 60fps but the PS4 and Xbox One can't?" comment is so pointless?



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Did you intend to answer your question with the following sentence......



"We'll toss the dice however they fall,
And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

But it's still not serious, not enough to dedicate 10 pages of discussion of this topic.

Interesting note: in some levels the gamepad screen decouples from the main screen while still maintaining 60fps.

The gamepad renders at 854x480 (409,920 pixels) which when added to the main screen (1280x720, or 921,600 pixels) gives us a total of 1,331,520 pixels, which is just shy of 900p/60fps.


Great output at stable framerate and it looks good to boot.
