Why is it actually so hard to find out the specs of the Nintendo Wii U? Aren't there any tech savvies who have oppened the console and analyzed everything?

Actually, IIRC,  people at GAF collected some money for Chipworls to take a photo of GPU die...but, that was not enough. Much latter, there was some devs talking about 192 GPU threads and there was quite a bit debate about that, but I think in the end consensus was that its GPU was 160:8:8 + TEVs from Wii...now this was long time ago, my memory is not as good as it used to be and things might've changed since then.

Other option is that some dev breaks NDA and tell us...now, we have at least 2 devs here who know what's inside WiiU, but for said reasons they can't speak.

I'm sorry but for what does TEV stand for?

This actually sounds really cool and somewhat plausible. We should all appreciate how Nintendo is trying to keep things fresh.

Aren't you the guy who's always claiming everything will be digital/streaming only? Maybe that difference between your version and that in the OP is why people want one but not the other

The OP doesn't say anything that goes against the NX being digital only.

Doesn't say anything for it either though so its absence is still a difference.

People were outright denying my claims that NX would be a platform that revolutionizes firmware and OS instead of hardware, which is exactly what the likely false OP describes. So still no.

The first 3 points sound great.

"2.Allegedly the analog controls for movement has small motors in them for full haptic feedback. Meaning if you control a character and hit a wall, the sticks move away from the direction of that wall to simulate running head first into it. This can also be used for jerking when firing a gun, taking damage, moving over rough terrain, ect."

This could really become a standard for the future!

the samsung 2ds part, is it describing the controller or the whole system?
is it a handheld?
