JO3H - It's Nintendo's fault for not telling us the specs in the first place. Their fanbase, us, want to know. And it could have saved a lot of discussion had they told us.
Really? The "fanbase" doesn't have a clue about to interpret specifications (which should be patently obvious by now). Drawing conclusions based on component specifications without any understanding of how the SYSTEM works is worthless.
The most "next-gen" thing about the WiiU is its system architecture. Apples to apples comparisons with last generations devices (which is essentially what you get from an early port) are not particularly informative.
