Honestly considering the Wii U is less than 1/3 of the PS4 hardware wise, the graphics are pretty darn good in some games. Also goes to show how much is still left on the table for the ps4 & xbox 1.

I don't even give the PS4 that.

Yes, it's come a long way. Would love to see some Xenoblade screenshots in that comparison, too. Wii U isn't the most powerful, but hey've certainly learned to maximize what they're working with.

I hope Retro sets the bar even higher with whatever they're working on.

It'll be awhile before I figure out how to do one of these. :P

Its incredible to see what they did with the Wii U. Especially considering how much power it uses. When I stop and think about it, it is really a incredible feat.

There aren't particularly big graphical jumps in any of your pics really!

Haha 1/3rd? Try 1/6 - 1/12th.

Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.
