It's not so much the Ram that is the worry in the Wii U more so the CPU which seems to be it's bottleneck according to rumour.

PopRocks3595077d ago

Really. At least half of the doubtful comments I've read all demanded that the Wii U has more RAM. Well... here you go. More RAM.

@Rage_S90
This is all people needs to know about your comment: bla bla bla WiiU bla bla bla ACCORDING TO RUMOUR.

CaptainN5079d ago

That's true but so many people are worried about all of Wii-U's specs....so its important they know at least some factual information like the link above.

mike1up5077d ago

You could build a WiiU from scratch right in front of their eyes, and most of these trolls would find a problem with it.

xtreampro5078d ago

What do they mean by extreme gameplay?

Ck1x5077d ago

I have to say there are some true idiots here at n4g! You are asking a legitimate question and you got disagrees... For what reason? Its just an obvious question of what do they mean by extreme gameplay? I wish all the short sighted fanboys would just ango kill themselves literally...

He just wanted to sound cool.
Clearly he just meant that with this chip data can be processed fast and efficiently allowing for better performance. Thus allowing for more stuff to be done on screen and in the background.

Of course if the CPU matches with it. (And I dont see why Nintendo would pay for a chip they can't fully utilize). So that's certainly a yes.

Ihaa5078d ago

The CPU is defiantly not the bottleneck. It has a Power7 which has 4 cores and 4 threads PER CORE. Thats 16 things running at the same time! Its faster than the i7 cpu's and those are used to test high end cards because they don't bottleneck. So a even faster CPU will definatly not bottleneck the GPU.

turgore5077d ago

So we need a good: CPU, GPU and enough RAM. Until now, most of it is speculation.

At first I was like, No Code Veronica on the list!? But then I seen Mainline. The list checks out, but I would personally put 2 over 4.

KwietStorm_BLM5d ago

I'll take 2 over 4 also. And even without a number, I don't see how Code Veronica, my other favorite in the franchise, isn't mainline when it's the actual sequel to RE2.

Rebel_Scum5d ago

The original RE was the best. Its not on the list which makes no sense.

The remake of it was alright but should be higher on this list.

-Foxtrot5d ago

The original RE smokes VII and Village, come on.

If you already own it... There, I saved you the click on a deliberately misleading article.

DivineHand12530d ago

I bought the game yesterday on steam for $4 because Square Enix is trying to replace it with a version that has no mod support.

Prior to yesterday, I had no idea the game had so many great mods until people started making a fuss out of it.

Knightofelemia30d ago

I wish Square would port other old games to newer systems I want Xenogears.

gold_drake30d ago
