I really hope you realize that the OS has absolutely nothing to do with graphics. It's the hardware. It's wii vs iPhone or wii vs iPad. The have different hardware.

yeah I know that, I mean games he is probably comparing to the Wiiware game are all recent games that fully use the Ipad's graphical capabilities. Basically just saying Ipad isn't bad graphics-wise.

this just in - Nintendo confirms plans to make gamers stay young by slowing down the clock.

"they'll enjoy games more if they don't grow up"
"7 year olds aren't elitists"
"7 year olds aren't told by the internet what to buy"
"they can make up their own minds as to what is fun"
"they don't care about the graphics"

Your face is a fist full of mean.

Find something of your own to post. Copy-pasting an article from the internet is copyright infringement, lazy, and doesn't bring much conversation.
This isn't wiiugo.com or wiiublog.com, this is a forum where discussion is the idea, not reposting stuff directly from other sources.

Posting more articles about how a next gen console is next gen is pointless.



And that wasn't my point. I was posting the same thing in both at the same time.

None of this is really directed at the OP. This is just the thread I choose to speak up in.

copyright infringement only applies to copyrighted material. I simply copied and pasted the article for those who don't like clicking links and provided the source link, I did not claim this as my own work.

My newest mock-up/concept:




the following are not made by me, just found these 2 on an Italian site...

Fatal Frame/Project Zero:


Fire Emblem:

If I was a developer this console is a dream come true, it opens up many new windows in gameplay and can improve on existing gameplay all without being too difficult to develop for (unlike motion control).

They look like games I play on my iPad

Wii graphics vs IOS 4-5? wow dude really? ipad games can use UE4 and stuff you know? so why are you trying to bash wii's graphics against another current OS?

I've seen a lot of your comments towards Nintendo products and it's all negative, you should know that Nintendo cares more about gamers then Sony and Microsoft ever will. look at past Microsoft and Sony patents, Sony wants Ads in games (while we are playing) to get more money and Microsoft wants to make games you play "bind" to your machine thus ending used games sales, renting etc. and making them more money.

I've never seen any "get rich quick schemes" from Nintendo, all I see is them continuing to innovate and giving players new experiences. Nintendo has a lot more experience with consoles compared to the other 2 companies and by them taking a completely different approach compared to Microsoft and Sony they let them 2 battle each other and split that market while they get a market to themselves.

"5th Cell CEO finds console power argument "frustrating".


Jeremiah Slaczka, the CEO of Scribblenauts developer 5th Cell, has stated that the Wii U is "definitely more powerful than Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3," adding that he finds the argument over the console's capabilities "frustrating".

Speaking in the latest issue of Game Informer, Slaczka said that the Wii U is "definitely more powerful than Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. It's kind of frustrating to see the rumours and speculation of people going back and forth saying it's weaker or more powerful. It's definitely more powerful."

5th Cell is currently developing Wii U title Scribblenauts Unlimited, the fourth game in the word-based puzzle action series.

"I think we were one of the first developers to see the Wii U," he added.

"Nintendo came to our studio and demoed it to us. A couple of weeks later Warner Bros. got to see it, and we said we should do this. This game was originally a Wii title but later moved to Wii U. It's been about two years in development."

Developers can't seem to agree on how powerful Nintendo's upcoming console is.

A report published yesterday quoted Tekken series producer Katsuhiro Harada as saying "the [Wii U's] clock is kinda low," and that the console's CPU was "a little bit" slower than 360 and PS3's.

Harada is currently porting arcade fighter Tekken Tag Tournament 2 to Nintendo's hardware.

The debate over Wii U's power has raged for months, with regular conflicting views from developers and publishers.

"It's not up to the same level as the PS3 or the 360," said one developer speaking to GamesIndustry.biz. "It doesn't produce graphics as well as the PS3 or the 360. There aren't as many shaders, it's not as capable," said another.

We have no idea who to believe.

Earlier this week, Epic Games' Mark Rein told VideoGamer that it was not Epic's "intention to bring Unreal Engine 4 to Wii U", but that a licensee could "port" a UE4 game to run on the console if it wished to do so.

Unreal Engine 3, the engine used by many Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 titles, "is a really good fit for that platform," he added."

I think people are too obsessed with the title "next-gen" being all about uber-leaps in graphics, guess what? graphics won't be that much better, unlike when the Nintendo 64 was released and gave us all 3d graphics. We aren't re-entering the 16/32 bit era's again lol.

All it is, is better lighting and what not..so who really cares? Thankfully I don't know much about all this tech talk so I see consoles for what they are, not for every little detailed spec in the machine, If it gives me great games, new gameplay and appealing graphics then I'll take one.

1.3D Pokemon RPG.
2.Super Smash Bros.
3.Zelda
4.Metroid
5.Fatal Frame/Project 0
6.GTA
7.Call of Duty
8.Watch Dogs
9.Metal Gear Solid
10.Silent Scope

Co-op in a survival horror game? where's the point in that? I'd rather be the only person alive against hordes of zombies instead of knowing someone had my back.

point is that with sony you'll only get the option to change from one screen to another, with Wii U you can get brand new gameplay based around having a second screen and that is something no one else will be able to other until they make their controllers with touchscreens and motion control etc.

1. ZombiU
2. Project P-100
3. Sports Connection

I like variety

we'll probably see ports of some DS games.

I'm so tired of this argument about the vita + ps3 and tablet + 360 being better then the Wii U.

1. Wii U will be a lot cheaper then buying both other setups.

2. Game developers won't be sure if gamers have both items so making a game specifically for them to work together may not be worth it.

2 key points why the Wii U will be the only choice compared to the other 2 "options".
