It says a dev says it's weaker then 360/PS3 but that's stupid because every dev said something different and the tech demos are already noticably more powerful then 360/PS3 and not only that Nintendo would be stupid enough to do that.

We are gonna have to wait until E3. SO WE ALL can see for sure. But like I've said and people told me I was stupid... Don't get your hopes up too high. This is nintendo.

Ok excuse my language but I'm tired of this carp. Supposly the third party agreement is over So why don't one of these so call developers that love the hardware grow some balls and tell us the truth. One again sorry for the language.

Ok so the forums automatically changes my curse words. Well anyway I just want someone to speak up in favor. I really won't buy the wii u "IF" this is true. Might as well by a current gen console save some buck plus have an extended library of games.

Exactily, every dev said it was more powerful and Nintendo should know if they made the Wii U weaker then the 360/PS3 then they are doomed, and from my other article


THQ: “WiiU is just alot more powerful than current HD consoles it does 1080p very easy.”

Epic: “It will do things current HD consoles simply cant do its going to be a powerful box.”

Crytek: “WiiU devkits are very powerful,the specs are very good”

Vigil Games: “We had the game at the same level as high end pc version in a matter of days and a few lines of code got the game up and running on tablet in 5 mins.”

EA: "Wii U is not a transitional platform, it is a true next generation system."

That proves that this article is fake and could of been a late April fools joke.

Oh how stupid rumors could get. I really think it is flase since develop release there name said the complete opposite of these "devs" makes me think it is troll bait. We will wait and see at E3.

I'd like to know names of these 'sources', which I can only assume are really just random dudes on the internet claiming that they're important trying to hate on Nintendo.

^ This. And visual evidence from an EARLY graphics demo, released one year+ before the system's release:



I mean holy sh!t look at the freaking thumbnail before you even push play, on a computer monitor, on a video posted to YouTube, where a video taken like this is destined to lose quality.

Weaker? I'm certain it's false.
Also, why would the dev have the final version of the Wii U anyway?

[KgGamesXL]

I think Nintendo needs to clear this up before E3 and announce some specs not all of them but just some to stop these stupid power rumors because i'm telling this is going to be going on for so long until E3.

[The Lonely Koopa]

I can't wait for the next article to say "Honestly if you look at all the parts of the wiiu its actually a bit weaker than the wii"

[Reaper Pin]

BUUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLCRAAAAAAAAAAAPPPPPPPPPP
Seriously, think about this:
The article was posted after April Fools to make the story more believable and these "Anonymous" Sources will reveal their names later and earn some "Fame."
Because if you seriously think about this, releasing this story days after April Fools would actually make it LESS believable than it already is.
(I'm just guessing here, tho.)

[Deadly Virus]

I feel like people are just kind of making stuff up at this point. People these days will look for literally any excuse to make Nintendo look bad, even if they have to pull it out of their own ass. Rather dissapointing really. :/

if some Nintendo guy came out and said Wiiu more or less powerful than 360 or ps3, then these rumors would stop
(best idea ever)
they wouldn't even have to say more, just that its more powerful than this because 1 fact or another

Nintendo will do this... When they show us the amazing graphics of all their new Wii U games at E3.

[The Lonely Koopa]

The GAF thread on this is horrible so many people choose to believe that guy.

[Nollog]

Sounds like they got someone who watched e3 last year and asked them a bunch of questions.

[The Lonely Koopa]

I honestly hate rumors like this because by my very nature I have to read replies to these rumors and give myself a headache as my brain tries to comprehend what the people replying are saying and I want you to share in my pain so http://www.neogaf.co...ad.php?t=468841

I regretted clicking your link until I saw somebody post, "They're coming, I can hear the mouse clicks", and the guy who posted this:

What steaming pile of dog carp!

If you read more you know that guy was mocked at by them showing some GOW3 footage and than when a person tried to show the bird demo people ignored it and the only response it was given was "it doesn't look that good" but its kinda calming down now I think.
