That picture is ugly.


That picture was pretty ugly. Out of all of the incredible pictures that were on that video you linked to, you chose that one.


Ha! You guys are funny! Besides, I meant to post this one as the example of how good the game looks:

That's a nice pikture of Pikmin. Here is an HD one that I've got:

With only 1GB of RAM and less then one year since the Wii U's release, that's pretty darn impressive.

I guess my question was whats the advantage of Wii U;s 1GB vs 360's 512mb for development? sub 720p 30 FPS vs native 720p 60 FPS? can the Wii U even achieve that.

I think Wii U can do quite a bit better than sub 720p 30FPS, especially if it's a game built from the ground up. Maybe some won't see this as the best example, because of "cartoony graphics", but the developer for Mario Kart 8 said that they have the game running a 60FPS with the possibility of maintaining 60FPS for two players. (Mario Kart 8 Developer Interview)

And it also appears that the game will be running at 1080p, although not confirmed if it's native 1080p. (Mario Kart 8 for Wii U – Runs in 1080p 60FPS)

I personally think that Mario Kart 8 has some great graphics! It's clearly better than PS360, especially in the lighting system. It might be worth checking out this video, which appears to be in-game and the best quality that I could find: Mario Kart 8 Gameplay - IGN.

I agree. I liked Nintendo's showing and I'm not really too concerned about its future in the console market, especially now that there's one less competitor to deal with. *Cough* *MicroCought*

One more thing...
