#93248 Wii U is 'definitely more powerful than 360 and PS3' - Scribblenauts dev

Posted by ianh05 on 13 July 2012 - 02:20 PM in Wii U Hardware

I didn't give my thoughts simply because I have no idea of it's specs, I'm just relaying news that I found interesting due to the fact that someone else said it was essentially an Xbox360.



#93224 Wii U is 'definitely more powerful than 360 and PS3' - Scribblenauts dev

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.



#93191 Wii U is 'definitely more powerful than 360 and PS3' - Scribblenauts dev

Posted by ianh05 on 13 July 2012 - 03:38 AM in Wii U Hardware

"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."

#133036 Are people over-criticizing the Wii U?

Posted by ianh05 on 18 November 2012 - 11:03 PM in Wii U Hardware

Instead of reading reviews, watch people play it. People who I have been watching on twitch tv are having a blast with the Wii U.

Australian companies sure do suck at porting games.

#140845 The truth to why AU/EU received Wii U nearly 2 weeks after the U.S

Posted by ianh05 on 30 November 2012 - 04:33 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Perhaps this is why we have to cough up more money too.



#130601 Mass Effect 3 WiiU port have technical issues

Posted by ianh05 on 16 November 2012 - 04:47 AM in Wii U Games and Software

The Company porting the game to the Wii U is an Australian developer. EA is just a publisher, not a developer.

which company is porting it? didn't think any aussie companies were involved in ME3.

Posted by ianh05 on 05 September 2012 - 06:37 AM in General Gaming

my top 10 favorite games growing up:

1.Jade Cocoon (PSX)
2.Robot Arena 2 (PC)
3.3D movie maker (PC)
4.Final Fantasy X (PS2)
5.Doom II (PC)
6.Duke Nukem 3D (PC)

#94491 "Two Unannounced, Big Multiplatform Games Will Look “Much Better” On Wii...

Posted by ianh05 on 19 July 2012 - 03:16 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I would assume that based on gearbox's praise of the Wii U the FPS would probably be Borderlands 2.

#142660 Trolled by GamePad's range

Posted by ianh05 on 03 December 2012 - 12:12 PM in Wii U Hardware

I get the feeling the gamepad will be usable in my brothers room but not mine which is right next to his and the 2nd closest room to the lounge room upstairs >.> hope I'm wrong though!



#130612 Nintendo has some aces up it's sleeve's for Wii U at E3 2013?

Posted by ianh05 on 16 November 2012 - 05:13 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I'm not sure if this has been discussed yet, but do you all think Nintendo is going to have an amazing E3 next year? The new PS3/360 could both be announced at E3 and that puts Nintendo in a bit of a pickle unless....they have some amazing games to show off.

What games could save Nintendo at next years E3? for me there are a couple of major ones that would automatically win against anything sony and microsoft bring out and they are Pokemon and Zelda.

Here's my idea for the pokemon game that could shine on Wii U and really deal a blow to the other systems:

Pokemon Worlds - Imagine all the pokemon so far in the same game, every region and every gym leader. Start out in Kanto and work your way to the other regions. The main feature the gamepad would be used for is the pokedex, the gamepad can display the pokedex while you play and you can scan on screen pokemon with it and have the gamepads speakers tell you about the pokemon etc.

#93237 WiiU is Very Easy to Develop and doesn't have many Limitations's

Posted by ianh05 on 13 July 2012 - 01:24 PM in Wii U Hardware

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.

Be tough for Wii U owners to throw money at this after spending money on the Wii U and games :P



#93195 WiiU is Very Easy to Develop and doesn't have many Limitations's

Posted by ianh05 on 13 July 2012 - 04:32 AM in Wii U Hardware

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.



#150768 New Idea! Wii U Dual Games - 2 games at once!

Posted by ianh05 on 22 December 2012 - 10:14 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Just the worst idea ever.


Really? I think it would be great for families and maybe even friends who don't want to play the same game. This way the console could be shared by 2 people.



#149210 New Idea! Wii U Dual Games - 2 games at once!

Just NO.


Why not? :)



#100527 Wii u Pokemon style

Posted by ianh05 on 18 August 2012 - 05:39 PM in Wii U Games and Software

3D/HD version of red/blue combined with bonus content, and more story involving Brock/Misty (have then tag along with you after you defeat their gym).



#148748 New Idea! Wii U Dual Games - 2 games at once!

Posted by ianh05 on 16 December 2012 - 09:21 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I had this idea a week or so ago but never got around to typing it up so here it is. Wii U is currently the only console with 2 screens and a lot of games will make use of it for that games benefit but why stick to only using that second screen for additional gameplay on a single game? Dual gaming on a single console is now possible! Currently if you have a brother, sister, friend or someone else over who wants to play a different game they can't until you finish.

Dual Gaming:

*Play 2 different games at once using each screen to play a different game.
*Could (maybe) be possible with games on your hard drive.
*Player one could use pro controller with the TV while player two uses the gamepad and it's screen.

Thoughts/Suggestions?
