#273194 Watch dogs wii u delayed

Posted by Zinix on 17 February 2014 - 06:57 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I don't get all this Ubisoft bashing. They make some of the best games around. Sure, they also make some pretty bad games, but so does every developer. Also, every developer plays the delay game. They've got to for financial reasons. I think they're a decent company.

The Rayman Legends delay+ the decision to make it multiplatform & delaying this will cause encouragement. 




#279060 Watch dogs wii u delayed

Posted by Zinix on 30 March 2014 - 08:53 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Guys,Why are we against ubisoft?, maybe this time there honest and they want to give us a high quality port.

I already pre-ordered the Wii U Edition.

If they were giving us an high quality port it would launch along with the other versions. 




#294492 Xbox One Lunar White Controller (Review) | ZyroXZ2

#283886 First MK8 Review

Posted by Zinix on 05 May 2014 - 08:22 AM in Wii U Games and Software

German magazine gamepro

 
90%
 
- The game has 30 characters
- You buy kart parts using coins you earn from races (nope, no microtransactions yet on this one)
- The graphics and music really are as impressive as the hype suggests
- The game really proves Wii U's power at 60 FPS
- When you do go past 2 players, framerat dips to 30 FPS, but still looks good
- Battle Mode has no arenas. Instead, everyone plays on modified regular tracks.
- There may be disagreement on which was done better, but everyone seems to agree both new and old tracks are fantastic.
- If there is any complaint, it is that the blue shells are too common. One guy got hit by them four times in one race
- Online play could not be tested in time for this review.

#274340 Wii U's Memory Bandwidth, GPU More Powerful Than We Thought?

Posted by Zinix on 23 February 2014 - 05:04 PM in Wii U Hardware

 

Some new information has surfaced due to some in-depth research conducted by various engineers regarding the Wii U's handling of memory: it may be more powerful and faster than we thought. 

Unlike the PS4 and the Xbox One, the Wii U is the only new generation console that has a lot of secrecy surrounding its hardware capabilities. While early kits and impressions from developers indicated that the Wii U was weak and slow and a “crap” system, further digging from die-hard members of the gaming community have summed up a possible cap for Nintendo's eighth gen system capabilities. 

Some individuals have pointed to the fact that Renesas Electronics, who merged with NEC – the semiconductor company who was recently picked up by Sony, as reported by DualShockers – is responsible for the Wii U's semiconductor in the same way that they were responsible for the Xbox 360's semiconductor. The natural logic that follows is that newer tech made in 2012 would obviously be faster than whatever they produced in 2004 for the Xbox 360's release in 2005. 

Keep in mind that the Xbox 360's bit bus per macro was 1024 nearly a decade ago, and according to information provided by Bob Peterson – regarding NEC Electronic's eDRAM for the 360 – the system was capable of expanding its bandwidth thanks to the external buffering from the eDRAM, writing... 
“Using external memory, the GPU would be limited to a 32- or 64-bit interface. The NEC Electronics eDRAM expands the on-chip memory interface past 1000 bits in width to support the GPU’s 256-Gbytes/second bandwidth between the graphics pipelines and memory.”

It's been speculated that this would translate into the 360 capable of through-putting up to 256GB per second. You can see how it all comes together in the diagram below.

The general gist is that if Nintendo's GameCube had eDRAM at 32 macros on a 16bit bus width, as noted by EE Times, and NEC already designed Xbox 360's eDRAM die more than a half-decade before prepping for the Wii U's tech, then quite naturally – according to Moore's Law – the Wii U's eDRAM should faster as part of the natural state of technological evolution. I mean, no one makes newer chips slower or bigger than previous chips, right? 

It's been speculated that taking the information above into consideration, the Wii U's total bandwidth of gigabytes per second, including the possible 1024 bits per macro and GPU – which, according to TechPowerUp clocks in at 550mhz – would come out to around 563.2GB per second. Keep in mind that the Xbox One runs about 170GB per second of bandwidth between the DDR3 and eSRAM, as outlined by Xbit Labs

This could explain the Wii U's ease of hitting 1080p at 60fps with nary many complaints from those who actually enjoy working with Nintendo's hardware. 

This also points to possible scaling with the GPGPU and graphical output that hasn't been discussed before with the Wii U.

#275699 Batman Arkham Knight revealed...No WiiU version

Maybe if you kids buy Arkham Blackgate for the Wii U they'll reconsider. 




#275846 Batman Arkham Knight revealed...No WiiU version

Posted by Zinix on 05 March 2014 - 08:36 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Well I have supported WiiU since launch and we have two in the household but the amount of games like this one that are skipping the console just kills what a great bit of kit WiiU is.

Gamers should buy the crap that 3rd partys send out at this point. That way we might get a 3rd party game besides the annual Rayman Rabbids/COD/Sonic game

You can't even compare both versions of tracks. It's like night and day.

Yupp. Two different generations of graphics.

 




#280480 Are you getting Smash Bros for the 3DS or Wii U?

Posted by Zinix on 08 April 2014 - 05:04 PM in General Gaming

Now that the 3DS version been confirmed for the Summer, has it influenced your decision? 

 

I'll probably get both & the Wii U version might have an extra character.




#290550 Capcom open to possibility of buyout.

Posted by Zinix on 16 June 2014 - 04:39 PM in General Gaming

 

 
Today, Capcom announced that at its most recent investor meeting, its shareholders voted to end the company's takeover defense -- which means that Capcom could now be acquired if a company buys up large amounts of its stock.

#293738 A 9-year old boy married a 62 year old woman

Posted by Zinix on 19 July 2014 - 08:54 AM in The Café

Nine-year-old Saneie Masilela has become the world's youngest groom for the second time after remarrying the 62-year-old woman he tied the knot with last year.

Dressed in a silvery tuxedo, baby-faced Saneie clutched the hand of mother-of-five Helen Shabangu - her children are aged between 28- and 38-years-old - as they repeated their vows a year on in front of 100 guests.

The schoolboy says he did it to make the marriage 'official' but other villagers in Ximhungwe in Mpumalanga, South Africa describe it as "sickening".

The ceremony - where guests shared a piece of cake - took place in front of Helen's long-term husband Alfred Shabangu, 66, who was there last year as well.

Meet Somali man aged 112 who married 17-year-old and 6 other giant age gaps

He said: "My kids and I are happy because we don't have a problem with her marrying the boy - and I don’t care what other people say.”

Both families claim the wedding is simply another 'ritual' after Saneie was told by his dead ancestors to wed last year and his parents forked out £500 for the bride and another £1,000 for the ceremony.

But the schoolboy - the youngest of five children – wanted to follow South African tradition and insisted they have the second ceremony this week to make their marriage official.
