PS4....Might not even be one. If you dont know Sony's situation I will just say in 2 years time they could be completly erased of the planet. No Sony = No PS4.

As for the 720.....Why would anyone buy it next holiday season? There wont be a main game at launch that gets people to get it. No Halo 5 or Gears game. So Wii U will dominate from Launch till 2-3 years at least.


what launch games has wii u got??? none that blow u away thats for sure

lol if anything wii u will be more powerful than the next xbox because that has to take into account the kinect 2, and ps4 will probably be the most powerful.

i wouldnt worry because wii u has 2010-2011 tech in it which is amazing, im guessing they got some deals on components.

next gen will be on par for the most part . where did u find this info that it will be weaker btw? because i havent seen any confirmed info.


I can agree with the 2010-2011 tech (Maybe even 2012 if we're lucky!)

But the one thing that has got me, is that if it's more powerful, then why is Epic only allowing Devs to port UE4 to the console? That's still good cuz we'll get Unreal 4 games, but then why would it be brought to the NextBox if it's less powerful?

GREAT! So now the PS4 will get all the UE4 games and Sony will be revived just as it was about to fall, lol jk

Its not about the power of the console its about the games available for it. If the wii u is underpowered compared to PS4 and nextbox then it surely will have a price advantage and have the ability to be sold at a much lower price. It doesn't have to match the ps4 or next xbox to succeed.

Just look at the Wii! Hopefully we won't have it being too underpowered like that again...

I have a wierd feeling that PS4 isn't gonna be too powerful and if that's true, microsoft will have no choice but to make hardware as powerful both of them. Otherwise, it's like being in the wii stage, except instead of getting shovelware, they get nothing due to costs being higher (majority wins always, look at PSVita)

Pikman 3, ZombiU, New Super Mario Bros U, Darksiders 2, Rayman Legends, Assasins Creed 3, StarFox HD (Retro's mystery game) Wii U has a great line up. Best out of ANY system launch.

I know alot of developers are excited for the wii u but Remendy confirmed that the specs for the PS4 and 790 are quote "A Quantum Leap" which has me extremly worried i mean the day Nintendo becomes a Third-party company is the day the gaming industry dies.


lolol dw at all. he didn't say the ps4 and 720 are a quantum leap, he said next gen would be. this could mean next gen PC games for all we know. anyway, quantum leap is totally personal opinion, there is no such number that defines it. if the xbox720 and ps4 are a quantum leap then u should be soo excited because that would mean the wii u will be as well cos the wii u won't be much weaker if at all than the competition.

I wouldn't hold my breath...I'd love to see some classic franchises on the Wii U , but after Sega exited the console market all their internal dev teams split apart.

Their strategy with the internal studio's was fine. They had tons of great games. Their strategy with their hardware....that was the problem..don't get me started or I will have a thesis in your inbox by tomorrow morning chronicling the downfall of Sega and why it happened!

I played the dreamcast once and thought it was pretty cool, although it didnt seem on par with GAmecube or Xbox

Sony is in much more trouble than people realize. Vita still isn't picking up steam and is being outsold 10 to 1 by the 3DS just in Japan alone. PS3 has seen mediocre sales over the last 6 months compared to its high a year or so ago. Sony's TV and PC divisions are bleeding money. If the Playstation brand doesn't turn it around it can mean dire straits for them.
