People get off of it already, no one knows what tech and specs that the WiiU is using for its connection to the WiiU console. To say that tech hasn't advanced enough is just ridiculous. With Bluetooth 4.0 out which uses less battery power we have no concrete evidence on its streaming capabilities. But I don't think that ps3/vita will be able to perform the same exact functions as WiiU will...
Nintendo really hasn't changed much, which isn't a bad thing because they still make excellent games. So I'm not so sure why people are saying that they use to make hardcore games(they still do). Its the elitist gamers that create this sense of segregation with all of these casual or hardcore labels that they put on games... A game, is a game, is a game people! To me I don't consider that graphics are what determine if a game is casual or not. In many ways I consider Resident ...
Their stock would fall completely out the bottom and heads would roll at nintendo if they did such stupidity... Unlike Nathan Drake or Master Chief, Mario is not just some franchise for nintendo. You people saying that nintendo should shun how much they show Mario is like Disney putting everything related to Mickey on the back burner. Mario is the face of nintendo period! Now should they develop and promote new franchises as well? Absolutely, but its corporate suicide for them to abandon what...
CaptainN: You really shouldn't try educating him on understanding facts, he's just here searching for attention by making baseless comments...
Sony could have saved lots of money if they didn't build their own cpu. When there were definitely other options available at a better cost. They could have then passed this savings on to their loyal fanbase...
Listen we all know that the CELL chip still has all of this power left inside of it. That's why its working on curing cancer in its spare time when in standby or whatever Sony states that it does while we sleep!!! I'm so over these articles really, face it people both systems are showing their age and as new hardware comes onto the scene this will be even more evident to the average user...
Are u kidding me! What kind of games could one play with lag like that... No way this competes at all
I'm waiting for all of the this is only slightly better than ps3 or 360 visuals! Delusions of grandeur I tell ya...
Realistically this years e3 is nintendo's show! Even if you don't like nintendo they are launching new hardware this year and nothing is going to beat that excitement at the show... I would be saying the very same thing if either Sony or Microsoft were pushing new hardware this year as well. I think the fact that we really don't know all about the WiiU just means that nintendo has that much more to talk about at e3
At $500 with only marginal improvements over the ipad2 I have no clue who in their right minds would purchase the ipad3...
Maybe they will make a new F-Zero game for the WiiU
I would love to see the developer "Treasure" make this game for the WiiU, as they have done an excellent job on the Sin and Punishment series. Kid Icarus WiiU would do well in the game play style of Sin and Punishment...
I'm personally very excited about WiiU, the more info that comes out about this system, be it games or the technology and software that will run it. Just lets us know that Nintendo plans on creating the best gaming product that they can this generation and this time no one can fault them for not trying hard enough...
This is why Epic is such a very smart company! With creating such high quality reliable game engines like UnReal 3, its allowing developers the opportunity to focus on creating great gaming experiences. This generation there are more higher quality games with striking visuals than ever before. It gives the smaller developers the same opportunities to exploit the gaming hardware to its fullest just like the larger studios
You seriously think that Uncharted 1 & Killzone 2 look better than Halo 4? If so, something might be seriously wrong with your vision there... That's just such a hysterical thing to say really!
To be honest both of these systems are on life support in the graphical department. All that any development company can do now is image trickery, to manipulate the images that we see first as being something detailed and on a grand scale when in fact the rest of the game and characters is not at that given time.
@Tommy334: I am shocked and disappointed if "The Last of Us" is your benchmark for what the next-gen systems are to bring to the table. Now if you stated graphics similar to the Unreal Engine 3 "Samaritan Demo" then we could understand. But Last of Us looks very similar in quality to Uncharted and it benefits heavily from having more closed looking settings versus the draw distance needed for the Uncharted games. When the camera zooms in to create very tight shots, the cha...
Because every developer states that the WiiU is as easy to develop for as the 360. So it wouldn't have taken much time at all to say take an early build from the 360 and spend additional time polishing it for the WiiU! Plus this will be a WiiU launch game from ubisoft, so I'm sure they are going to want a big impression to be made...
What irks me is when u try and have conversations with people about how the 360 & PS3 are very similar in power. The first thing that they tend to bring up is that there's no game on the 360 that looks better that Uncharted though! And then this comes along and proves right that the 360 can hold its own still...
Not to mention that the sega saturn sold less than 10million systems in an era where the ps1 sold over 100 million systems. So sega had no momentum whatsoever going into the next generation... Even with the gamecube, nintendo made lots of profits in everything they did. From the hardware, accessories and software sold. So this whole nintendo pulling a sega is just ridiculous really! If it came down to it where a generation of home consoles became so bleak for nintendo, then maybe I could see ...
