Triple the 360 is fine.

Xbox 360:

3.2Ghz Tri-Core CPU wit 10mb eDRAM
512MB RAM shared with GPU
GPU is 0.25 TFLOPS

Wii U
3.0 GHz Quad-Core CPU with 16MB eDRAM
1.5GB of RAM
1.1 TFLOPS GPU to run Samiritan Demo at 720p (around the power of a Radeon 4870)


I have to agree with 10k on this one.

I'm good with "Noticeably better" or "Much better," because it's going to be at least another 5 years before Nintendo comes out with another console.
Most of it's lifespan will be deep in the surroundings of the PS4 and Next XBox, which will more than likely be stronger consoles.

The goal shouldn't be about being on par with the 360 and PS3 because like it or not, this generation is pretty much done.
If Nintendo wanted to make a console that rivals this gen, It should have been done 1, maybe even 2 years ago.

The Wii U should be a "tomorrow" console in all aspects.

I am afraid the price tag should not be added at all.. Wii for example, with such calculations, should cost 10 euro each.. not 100+ at this point.. I choose option number 3 (4x-5x) because, thats what is going to be.. I am realistic.

If nintendo wants to surprise, then its option number 4...

I just need wii u zelda demo for 3d, but i really want nintendo to upgrade their 2d graphc style, the mario mii we have seen is a shame when you can have games like rayman legends graphically.
Anyway, ill go with nintendo whatever they decide, but i want them to use it perfectly, but we know the console has been modified a lot since last year, and i' sure nintendo took the time needed to really fit their expectations.

I want games to look like the deviant arts game we can see online

Lol im just like nintendo , i cant talk about specs, all is about experience lol

Nintendo with no power = no good games = no customers. Simple, im no games expert, im a fish monger, so unless they intend on making there money buy selling online pop cap style games they need to follow that simple equation at the start of this post!

Can you make a "On par with PS4/720" please?.


Sorry, but no. Until there is solid information on the specs of the PS4 and 720, I can't do that.

I want the Wii U to be as strong as it possibly can without shooting the price up past $350

Sorry, but no. Until there is solid information on the specs of the PS4 and 720, I can't do that.


Sure you can. Put something like 'Strong enough to be on par with the next generation.'

enough for it to be able to play most ps4/xbox720 games but not to much for it to be overpriced.

it has to be able to play xbox720 and and ps4 games if it doesn't ill likely stop playing it like i did with the wii. im hoping for a system in the price range of $350-400 if its 400 than im sure its a beast if its 350 its still likely to be able to handle ports.
