#267868 nintendo NEXT GEN console specs LEAKED (RUMOR)

Posted by The Ferryman on 21 January 2014 - 10:18 AM in Wii U Hardware

Didn't come from dualpixels so..fake.



Also, the GPU is 4.6 tflops= 9.2 closed box performance. That would mean the fusion terminal would be able to output these types of graphics:

lol..... Very un-nintendo of them to do this.




#211296 Does the internal HDD provide better performance than an external?

Posted by The Ferryman on 25 May 2013 - 08:36 PM in Wii U Hardware

Actually i think Alex Atkin confirmed that the actual OS of the wii u is on the internal nand flash memory which could explain why you get drastically reduced download speeds when downloading a demo or game onto the internal memory(it is doing two operations at once: reading the os and downloading onto the same memory).

 

Now i have a question of my own, since ssd is basically flash memory as it fills up it becomes slower, this is true with all ssd's would this mean that the deluxe wii u which is left with about 25gb of internal memory might be faster than the standard wii u which has like 3gb of memory left? What i did since day one was not write anything to the system memory, everything was written into the external hhd and my wii u has only frozen twice since launch and has had no slow downs.




#211287 Is the wii u THAT underpowered?

Sorry if the pictures are too small but i had to reduce the size to minimize artifacts.

Not seeing that huge of a leap. What do you guys think?

 

Also notice the last two wonderful 101 pics, the last one was from September, notice the improvements.




#209567 Xbox One unveiled... Diminishing returns?

Posted by The Ferryman on 21 May 2013 - 11:29 AM in Wii U Hardware

That fifa demo might have better animations and a bump in textures, but it didn't impress me..



Also diminishing returns in our wallets when trying to buy used games thanks to the used games fee....

3Dude the gpu has 768 operations per cycle, how does that compare to the wii u? Or we don't know what the wii u does? Also the 40nm chip rumor seems to be false.




#209503 Xbox One unveiled... Diminishing returns?

Posted by The Ferryman on 21 May 2013 - 10:17 AM in Wii U Hardware

Frankly the fifa and the cod game they showed did not see a bump in graphics i would have hoped for. Seems to me what 3Dude said was right, the wii u will be able to do everything the next consoles can, just to a lesser extent since it supports dx11 like effects and tessellation.




#206154 Why should I buy a Wii U?

Posted by The Ferryman on 11 May 2013 - 05:01 PM in Wii U Hardware

Give me some reasons...

I got three of them

 

1)Because it is not as underpowered as some people think.

2) Exclusives...

3) You don't have to believe me, wait until e3 and YOU be the judge. Nintendo knows what they have to prove.




#206147 wii u internet connection

Posted by The Ferryman on 11 May 2013 - 04:53 PM in Wii U Hardware

Good work alex, so have you conlcuded that connecting the internet through usb on the wii u is faster now than if you use wi-fi? And how strange is it that the flash memory inside wii u which is supposed to be comparable to ssd speeds right? That the write speeds is so slow..... How about the read speeds? Have you done any benchmarks loading up any demo on the internal memory vs usb?? Which is faster you think? Thanks.
