thehappening

right iv looked around done some math and im sure its dead on or as near as damb it ,,the gpu is based on AMD 4670 (I SO HOPE I GOT THAT RIGHT THE GPU NAME NOT THE INFO)....

EVERYTHING LEAKED AT VGLEAKS  COMBINED WITH IWATAS RESENT TALK TO US AND THE YEAR 2008 BEING YEAR 1 FOR WIIU DEVELOPMENT AND THE NINTENGEN GPU BEING KINDA TO NEW AND NOT MATCHING THE VGLEAKS API LEVEL SO RULING IT OUT.....

LOOKS LIKE AMD 4670 TO ME....


the base api level stated at vgleaks, the nm size stated by nintendo the nm size of 2008 gpus from amd and the nm size of gpus to day all point to it being a AMD 4670 base for the wiiu gpu then ad in the 75 watts peak wattage draw and the 8 rops (pixel pipes) its all screaming wiiu gpu started life as a amd 4670

the 4670 has 8 rops, 32 texture units, 320 stream processors  and a standard clock speed of 750 mhz basically its the 8 rops version of the 4870 everyone went crazy about a few months back with all the ign leaks etc

its in fact the same gpu but 8 not 16 rops its perfect for 1080p were as a 16 piper would be more 4k lol



ITS ALSO STRONGLY RUMORED THE GPU HAS CUSTOM UP GRADES TO LIGHTING AND POST PROCESSING EFFECTS

my number one wish for wiiU has been confirmed twin screen wii remote and chuck CORE fps gaming/controls, whilst playing COD CURRECTLY THATS WITH A Wii remoote and nunchuck, i dont do CASUAL AUTO AIM you can have the gamepad in its cradle or on your lap as map info and class etc and you interact with it in real time with out pausing no dubt the online chat and notices etc will all be on the gamepad screen.... so you dont have to pick it up you use the wii  remote on both screens.... IV SAID THIS ONCE IV SAID IT A 1000 TIMES, ITS TWIN SCREEN WITH REMOTE THAT WILL BE THE TRUE CORE WAY TO PLAY AND ITS ALREADY HAPPENING nice to see tryach are clearly thinking like"""" REAL CORE GAMERS""" not fake ones cough cough twin sticks

iv been saying this for like forever this will allow twin screen gaming and control and no pauses via a wii remote just take my money just take it iv dreamed of this whilst playing fps for YEARS now it has come true

appolagys for the guy in video trying to look core by quickly stoping himself from saying wii remote and saying pro pad TWIT and why he left the most important bit to the end as if a wii remote was wrong IGN-orant lol at analogs are mouses and robo cop camera that ruins games

iv actually stopped playing cod due to not being able to get this out my head ,,,now it has come true im just gob smacked iv been saying this for years



dual view point kill streaks TAKE MY MONEY

well its looking better all the time,ubisoft have agian confirmed that rayman is 1080p 60 frames whist the controller screen is 480p 60 frames in game,and that the wiiu fully supports this level of resolution support thats 7 x 480p 120 frames being supported clearly !!!!!

the wiiu also again is said to have loads of ram and has no issues with memory at all

Remember when we posted up this blurb about the Wii U back before E3?

AMD GPU7 R700-Based processor
“GX2″ named API for Wii U
32MB embedded DRAM capable of 720p 4x MSAA or 1080p rendering in a single pass

Check out this info that comes from the LinkedIn profile of Ubisoft's Rémi Génin...

I currently work on a multi-platform game engine (PC-DX9, WiiU-GX2) during the production of "The Raving Rabbids 6".
- Maintenance and optimization of the proprietary engine.
- Improvements on the soft shadows system (VSM, PCF, cascades).
- SSAO

That right there actually confirms the GX2 API from the rumored info. Does that mean the rest of those leaked specs were spot-on as well?

theres a cpl of info sources that seem to reconfirm the VGleaks wiiu specs still no clock speeds tho

3mb cpu catch 32mb gpu EDram gx2 api and tri core powerpc cpu with graphics burst pipes buffers (NOT POWER 7)

patent shows two players using Wiimotes to fire crossbows, with one player viewing the TV and the other viewing the Wii U GamePad's screen
- shown in both competitive and cooperative modes
- another game example: players cut ropes holding up a wall by shooting arrows or throwing stars from their crossbow
- cut down as many walls as possible in a race to the finish
- co-op example shows both players looking at the same cave scene initially, but then splitting up to explore different areas
- another example: players control propeller-like objects and avoid obstacles and walls as they fall down a shaft
- setup can work even when both screens are positioned next to each othe
- system can rapidly alternate activation of each sensor bar to avoid interference
- allows for more players as well


not only can you wii remote from one screen to the other its now confirmed tv screen and gamepad screen multi play is also doable its looking more and more likely that multi tasking and even sererate use of gamepad and tv and console will be doable im hoping for wii remote and nunchuck gaming and tv screen and gamepad acting as a hud/info/voice chat secondery unit like say COD  and wii remote instead of just the gamepad
