#139274 Tally-ho, pip pip and Cheerio, it's the British Wii U Launch Thread.

Posted by reef7009 on 27 November 2012 - 02:43 PM in Wii U Hardware

I asked a nice chap at HMV today : "Sir , have you received shipment of the Wii U yet"? "Indeed we have Sir!....The ' U ' has landed" I was then told to present myself at the store on friday to collect :) Jolly Hockysticks!

#137464 Gamester81 Reviews the Wii U

Posted by reef7009 on 24 November 2012 - 11:38 AM in Wii U Hardware

Stopped watching after he said "it's a Wii, the graphic is a little better than a Wii". Don't even bother to watch the whole video.

Don't want to waste my time to listen to idiots.


Couldnt agree more

#137052 Wii U GPGPU?

Posted by reef7009 on 23 November 2012 - 05:38 PM in Wii U Hardware

Good article. I hope that , no matter what gpu is in wii u , we do begin to see some amazing games graphically aswell as playability.



#137029 If the wii U gamepad was it's own system, would you still buy it?

Posted by reef7009 on 23 November 2012 - 04:27 PM in Wii U Hardware

Doubt it. I like the BIG picture and surround sound ;)



#137027 Idiot selling microwaved Wii U for thousands...

#137026 Wii U won't play sound on TV, HELP!

Posted by reef7009 on 23 November 2012 - 04:16 PM in Wii U Hardware Help

Weird. I was gonna suggest what u have tried but u have covered those basics. Have u looked in wii u settings?



#137024 Wii U GPGPU?

Posted by reef7009 on 23 November 2012 - 04:14 PM in Wii U Hardware

It still begs the question....why come up with that specific gpu model number in the email from AMD? Why not some other/any model gpu from , say , the last 2-3 years? It seems specific if u see what i mean. Oh well lol the mystery goes on :)



#136925 Wii U GPGPU?

Posted by reef7009 on 23 November 2012 - 12:44 PM in Wii U Hardware

Reading on Avforums , a little while ago a senior member wrote about being sceptical about the 6760 emails from Amd , so he himself set about emailing Amd himself. He was expecting to de-bunk this story....but guess what..he received an email back from Amd confirming it is indeed a modified 6760 in the Wii u !  This guy assured the forum he is 100% genuine in emailing Amd himself and staked his reputation as a senior member on Avforums. He posted the email reply in his post. He also emailed Nintendo seeking further confirmation. Alas the big N neither 'denied' nor confirmed it , but thats Nintendo...as secretive as ever. Hmmm....



#136904 Wii U GPGPU?

Posted by reef7009 on 23 November 2012 - 12:00 PM in Wii U Hardware

#136883 Wii U GPGPU?

Knickers and Twist come to mind there lol



#136869 Wii U GPGPU?

Posted by reef7009 on 23 November 2012 - 11:28 AM in Wii U Hardware

Seeing as the CPU has been constantly put through the wringer this week i thought id try to get us off the subject now . So i was wondering if we are any closer to knowing which gpgpu is in the console? Ive heard 6760 but i dont know , any thoughts?



#136259 Will Wii U become the next SNES?

#136250 Slow CPU Will Shorten Wii U's Life - DICE Dev

Posted by reef7009 on 22 November 2012 - 11:35 AM in Wii U Hardware

Shall we all just give up on Wii U now then? Il cancel my pre order too



#136003 Will Wii U become the next SNES?

Posted by reef7009 on 22 November 2012 - 04:11 AM in Wii U Hardware

Yes we have to wait and see...



#136000 Will Wii U become the next SNES?

Posted by reef7009 on 22 November 2012 - 04:05 AM in Wii U Hardware

Yes its more competitive now , granted , but at the time we were kind of hearing similar things : The Genesis is faster!



#135996 Will Wii U become the next SNES?

Posted by reef7009 on 22 November 2012 - 03:59 AM in Wii U Hardware

Given what we are hearing about a slow cpu i wanted to make a comparison here : The Super Nintendo had what some called at the time..a slow cpu. Yet it became a top selling machine. And it was capable of many neat tricks. Loads of top games. Do u think Wii u can emulate that success?....



#135970 Slow CPU Will Shorten Wii U's Life - DICE Dev

Posted by reef7009 on 22 November 2012 - 03:09 AM in Wii U Hardware

And we do have the first melting wii u . Some idiot microwaved his in the name of art and is selling it on ebay for $3500. I hope he puts the money towards a good psychiatrist. Knob

#135803 Slow CPU Will Shorten Wii U's Life - DICE Dev

Posted by reef7009 on 21 November 2012 - 07:11 PM in Wii U Hardware

#135795 Slow CPU Will Shorten Wii U's Life - DICE Dev

Posted by reef7009 on 21 November 2012 - 07:07 PM in Wii U Hardware

Correct! We buy nintendo because its nintendo. No amount of conjuring by MS or Sony can or will ever emulate the magic of nintendo software. And for the record i have a ps3. But come the 30th i will be getting a wii U



#135779 Slow CPU Will Shorten Wii U's Life - DICE Dev

Posted by reef7009 on 21 November 2012 - 06:57 PM in Wii U Hardware

No one has done a 'detailed' strip down as far as anyone knows yet....and....the dev kits kept changing so what was 'seen' 10 months ago will likely NOT reflect whats going on in final machines now?
