#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?....

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

#145394 Wii U SKINS! FINALLY! Found a online deal for today only!

Posted by reef7009 on 08 December 2012 - 05:05 AM in Wii U Hardware

Not so much a skin as such...but if anyones interested HMV in uk are selling a silicone case for the gamepad. Its in black or white and its pretty cool. The only thing i dont like is when its on it wont sit in charging dock properly to charge , but i just connect the cable at the top instead and it does still sit on the dock though. Its made the pad feel much more sturdy and looks great. No more fingerprints either

They also sell a screen protector.

#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?

#136904 Wii U GPGPU?

#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....

#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.

#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
