Looks like they caught up with the 360 and PS3 to me ? Those graphics in a custom demo with no AI, no menus, no controller interaction could easily be done on both of those systems. Except this is 5 years late.
@4400seriesFAN You're kidding yourself, maybe you should actually look at what Forza 4 controlled car showroom demos can do for example. Nintendo are clueless hacks recycling the same old shit. As usual.
@4400seriesFAN No derp gobbler, the fucking showroom stuff in the FINAL GAME, camera panning around a car - it's live. It's an example of what a console can do not processing AI / Network / Input code. I'm not talking about the Kinect demo. Also the video you're fucking talking about, right here on this page, guess what? No menus, no enemies, no need for a perfect frame rate.. jesus.
@4400seriesFAN I'm saying that they are comparable uses of graphics, both demos, both not playable. Both the PS3 and the 360 in graphics only scenes can do very similar if not the same graphics. Simple as that.
Listening to Console losers arguing about graphics is hilarious. Console graphics have always sucked compared to PC, PC is godmode and consoles are for kids, grow up already.
Everyone doubted the Wii, and the DS. They both have won the past generation in sales. Everyone doubted the 3DS, it is on track to outpace the DS' sales. Lets have faith in the guys who single-handedly saved the gaming industry and see what this console can do. :D
Nice to see Nintendo draw on a traditional Japanese setting, I would love to see a First Party Nintendo game set in a traditional Japanese setting. something like mystical ninja.
Zelda, in these graphics? Yes please. Also the graphics are betters than a ps3's or Xbox's. I can properly say too, as I have both set up on a 42inch LCD HDTV. So I don't want any Sony fanboys saying otherwise.
@MICROSOFTGAMESTUDIO1 and? newer doesn't mean better, aswell that was directed to the people who claim they are the same/worse than PS3 or Xbox, theres no need to get angry over a simple statement, especially if you agree with it.
@SylentSparrow I was never angry just letting you know 50% more proccesing power than 5-6 year old technology is far from impressive espically since the new procceser is a quad core the same the ps vita (handheld) has when there are 6 core cpu's that have been on the market for some time already
@MICROSOFTGAMESTUDIO1 No one really knows how powerful this system is except for Nintendo themselves of course and third party developers, there are rumors saying it is basically an Xbox 360 with a table controller while others are saying the Wii U is as much as 5 times more powerful than the Xbox 360 and PS3. We just have to wait and see.
lol my cusin says xbox 720 is gonna be virtual reality he thinks he knows everythin beacuse of some friend told that his unclu makes games and he said its gonna be vertial reality it is already a vertial reality system that costs 350000 dollars for one wtf is that gonna be in a xbox lol
there are a lot of nice photorealistic effects in this the depth of field and the motion blur especially but everything else seems meh and the water doesn't look that good i would have liked to see something like source or cryengine water some more geometry and higher quality reflections
You may say that the Xbox and PS3 fan boys are crying right now. But I remind you not to forget that Sony and Microsoft still have there next generations consuls coming in the future and odds are they might be more powerful then the Wii U. but alas I'm not worried. Though these graphics are amazing I know that Nintendo does not spend all there time on graphics rather they focus on game play, story, music. and style. and that's why I I'll always love them!
Are people stupid? You aren't going to require multiple touch screen controllers - Nintendo will probably release standard analogue controllers with Gyro and accelerometers built in - probably around the price of a standard Dual Shock. Why do people lack sense or any kind of imagination?
this STILL looks like crap. People who say this looks much better than the 360 or PS3 is obviously a Wii/DS fanboy who has only played a PS3 a few times on a crappy SDTV
Well these are rendered in game graphics. And yea its better than PS360. And if its still crap then I guess the games you'll be stuck playing until the next PSXbox comes along (which wont be for years yet) must also look like shit then huh?
That looks beautiful. So basically what this tech demo means is that we will be able to achieve real-time graphical renderings like these if not better in 1920x1080, 32-Bit Video Mode, @ 60FPS, and including some aliasing & anisotropic filtering?
@jalani316 At max 70 dollars per controller.. How much are 360 controller's? 50 dollars'ish? Do they have all the capablities that the Wii U has? NOPE.
For the moment, NIntendo is saying that the Wii U supports just one touch-screen controller per console. So you won't have to buy several of them. They are still not sure wether you can bring your controller to a friend's house an interact with his controller in some way. Luckily it is a long time until the console releases so they have plenty of time to figure these things out.
As soon as this video started I was thinking Ōkami. A proper sequel really needs to happen and with none of that chibi junk. Just imagine using the controller's screen for brush strokes!
Almost everyone who's seen the Wii U thinks its bull shit that this system will have better graphics and be more inferior than the x-box 360 and PS3. People those systems came out 6 YEARS ago! Technology has changed! Of course they can make it more powerful because they have NEW FUCKING TECHNOLOGY!
1 this is a tech demos games will not look even close to this
2.its already speculated that the wii u 50% more powerful in gpu/cpu then the ps3 6 year hardware!!!! if true that is like the diffrence from the gc to the wii
This is a tech demo, but unlike the kind you are referencing, this was actually running on the console and there is a part in it that allowed people with the controller to look around while the bird was stopped from the birds eye on the screen. That wouldn't be possible unless it was all being rendered by the console which means that if it had been a normal game it would look just like that.
@psp785 Most tech demos run as footage and every Nintendo console has games that exceed its tech demo's on the system. I don't know where you got the info that the console games won't live up to them. At least the ones made by Nintendo live up to them.
Also, again, this tech demo allowed interaction, it wasn't just shown.
In the video you see no tessellation but it's known that the card theirs is based on can does it well. /watch?v=9RELgrQyQj0 This is likely far from all the console can do.
1. This is a tech demo that was rendered from the console not to mention early development. We haven't been shown the system's full potential. With that kept in mind.
2. You compare the Wii2 which is reported to be 50% greater than a PS3/360 as the difference between a NGC and Wii? WoW! Ladies and gentleman he just said the PS3 and 360 have graphics on par to the Wii.
3. PC will always be ahead of console gaming. Always.
@ThePlatypusCode console gaming is way better, you got a variety of games from all genres yet on pc you got shooters and stratergy and nothing else all the best franchises are on consoles. why would the public buy new consoles every 5 years or so if pc gaming was so great? Gaming would die if it were not for console's the sales dont lie, games sell a massive amount more on a console than pc, in fact pc gaming is a tiny percent of the market probably 1% of all games sold are for pc games.
@SuperMagnum83 Umm.... maybe I didn't make myself clear that I was talking about PC gaming graphics not the games itself. PC graphics took no time to get ahead of the PS3, something that was bound to happen.
What differs from console and PC gaming is the constant upgrading of the system. With PC gaming we sometimes need to upgrade our systems to keep up within a five year span. With console we can purchase a system cheaper than a PC costs knowing it will play games for the next five years.
@ThePlatypusCode nintendo never was ahead of anyone when it came to graphics. they love their big pixels i guess. anyway im sure ps4 and the new xbox will blast this wii2 to bits when they get anounced :)
And what's that based on? PS3 hardware is already 5/6 years old, it's not exactly hard/expensive to make a significantly more powerful console, I'll be surprised if Sony again doesn't have the best hardware next gen.
And what's that based on? PS3 hardware is already 5/6 years old, it's not exactly hard/expensive to make a significantly more powerful console, I'll be surprised if Sony again doesn't have the best hardware next gen.
@Ladiesman1447 You must not have lived long enough to know that the Ps2 was the weakest last gen so how would it be surprising if any console sticks to their power? Based off this btw "We aren't planning on making the Ps4 much more powerful then the Ps3 and we will be designing titles for women" srry man
"You must not have lived long enough to know that the Ps2 was the weakest last gen"
Yeah, that must be it *rolls eyes*. And Sony will continue to make a more powerful console because that's now their competitive edge, they're not going to gain any market share by having less powerful hardware. It's common sense.
@Ladiesman1447 Then how did the Ps2 dominate with weaker hardware? How did the Wii Dominate with weaker hardware? How did the DS become the most sold handheld of all time with weaker hardware then the PSP? Since the Ps4 was confirmed to be weak next gen then i'd be surprised if it didn't win next gen, but then again if sony over prices it then it won't sell very well .
First off, PS4 hasn't been confirmed to be weak, you've made that up. All Sony has said is that they won't make as big of an investment. Look at the Vita, it's close to the PS3 in performance and the price of a 3DS.
As for why the weaker systems have dominated in sales, it's a different reason for each. PS2 won because it had the best game library, came out earlier and had massive hype. Wii won in sales because of price tag and gimmick.
@Ladiesman1447 Gimmick- A trick or device intended to attract attention, publicity, or business. Nintendo have always been competitive with graphics until Wii so that proves you're just a fanboy basing info on the Wii. Forgot to mention this "This next gen will be about delivering creative and innovative gameplay and we wil be designing title for the less serious gamers and women." -Jack Tretton.
I'm not even a big fan of Nintendo but I think this shows promise. :p
No, it proves I know what I'm talking about and you don't. Wii was more successful than the GC and N64 combined, ergo the strategy they used for the Wii (weak hardware, but cheap price tag and gimmick) is what they'll stick with.
And guess what, they have! Wii U is exactly that. Nintendo no longer relies on graphics to win market share, they try to do it now with gimmicks, like 3D, motion controls, now the tablet controller. You, as a nintendo fanboy, should know that.
@Ladiesman1447 Which is why it's more powerful then the Ps3 and they are getting thrid party support.
How am I a fanboy when i own all 3 consoles and you're the 1 saying the Ps4 and xbox will blow this away no matter what and they always have shit graphics? Lol look in the mirror
It's marginally more powerful than the PS3, which will be 6 years old by the time Wii U comes out, that's not impressive. As for 3rd party support, it's only good by Nintendo standards, a new console getting ports from last/current gen, that's pretty poor.
I didn't say Nintendo always has shit graphics. And you are a fanboy, it's obvious by how defensive you're getting, and by how weak your points are.
@Ladiesman1447 The tech demo for Wii U was made in a short time and it was impossible to reproduce on the Ps3, developers have said that it was marginally more powerful based on the dev kits but Nintendo later confirmed that it was underclocked. What's wrong with getting ports from this gen? It can't get games from next gen immediatly cause it's in development. (Killer Freaks from outer space) It's a next gen game but it's in early dev so it looks unimpressive
@Ladiesman1447 Dude every console gets ports from last gen before getting new games. Especially Nintendo. How bad would it be to buy a Wii U then have no games that you wanted this gen. Some people might not have this gen consoles but they want a game from this gen. If consoles have ports from last gen then it is a good thing and it's not like the Wii U isn't getting new games.
No they don't, this is the first time its happened. All new consoles have shown off new games, this is the first time a next gen console has launched where they have primarily shown what will be year later ports of current gen games. It shows Nintendo has made a enxt gen console to compete with current gen playstation and xbox, what's going to happen when the nextbox and ps4 come out?
@Ladiesman1447 Also this is coming out in the lifetime span of this gen and since graphics are it's limits for a few years then the ps4 and 720 won't be that far ahead (Especially Ps4) and the Wii got twilight princess as a port from gamecube, Psp got jak final frontier as a port from the Ps2, it's not the first time it's happened and the xbox 720 will probably surpass the Wii U but not the same difference as the Wii vs xbox. It'll probably be no less then Ps3 vs xbox
What do you mean it's coming out in the lifetime span of this gen? Hows that any different to any other next gen console, and what's that meant to mean anyway? Can you explain again about ps4 and 720 not being far ahead and the graphics limit thing, I don't understand what you were trying to say there.
And TP was a port, yes, Jak LOST frontier was not a launch port for the PSP. So you named ONE other example of it happening on another Nintendo console.....
@Ladiesman1447 "We aren't planning on making the Ps4 as big as a jump as the Ps3"-Jack Tretton The Wii U has a zelda tech demo that is impossible to reproduce on the Ps3 without serious downgrading(Accroding to developers and Nintendo)and they were made in a short time with underclocked dev kits so the Ps4 won't be far behind but it won't be more powerful. The 720 can't be much more powerful since we've reached a graphic barrier until new tech is cheap enough it'll proably be slightly above.
Jump in hardware is all relative. The jump from PS2 to PS3 was massive, the PS4 can still and probably will be a beast without having that same sought of technological leap. And what graphical barrier have we hit? AMD’s director of ISV relationships Neal Robison said that the next-generation Xbox will offer graphics that will be on a par with the type of effects viewers saw in the movie Avatar.
@Ladiesman1447 The jump from ps2 to Ps3 was not as massive as the jump from ps1 to ps2, it's plausible that the Ps4 can still be more powerful then the Wii U but the chances of that arent big and wouldn't be smart on Sony's part since they lost alot of money on video games due to the Ps3 selling for less then the manufactors demanded. The xbox bieng on par to Billion dollar movie on average gameplay that'd make the 720 fail due to the price of the tech needed to make games and the console itself
The Wii U isn't much more powerful than the PS3, there's no chance of the PS4 being weaker than the Wii U, it would never happen, there would be no point in releasing a PS4 at all if that were the case. Neither of us can comment on the price and success of the next Xbox, all we can do is take the word of AMD, who is the supplier of both the Wii U's and Xbox's graphics cards.
@Ladiesman1447 It'd alot more powerful then the Ps3. If it's using the radeon r700 series then idc what no nothings say cause it should be 4 times more powerful then the Ps3. Where do you come to the conclusion that it's slightly more powerful then the Ps3 if the Ps3 can't handle the tech demos from an underclocked dev kits.
@Ladiesman1447 This 1 probably but not in 1080p. It can't handle the zelda tech demo though. "Regarding Zelda HD showcased at E3, japenese developers have informed me that it is impossible to reproduce on other machines, Iwata feels that HD development will not be a problem." besides, EA already got the new dev kits and said they were really excited about the Wii U now that they compared it's "Gap in power" with the Ps360. =)
Well we'll find out, no point arguing about it. Based on what I've seen and heard though, I'm not expecting it to compete with the PS4 or next Xbox, I think the gap will be smaller than this gen.
@Ladiesman1447 Yeah but you have to remember, The only reason Nintendo fell behind this gen is because of the jump from standard to HD and they knew they'd profit with standard but now they can continue to be competitive with specs just they have been doing all the time until the Wii.
@supernovacomics if the Wii U gets full 3rd party support and at a competitive price I may well make the jump from PS3. By the sound of Devs on the Wii U it should well be capable of running all current gen games at 1920x1080p native. Not the usual 576/600/720p and 960x1080 upscale we're used to on ps3 and xbox. The rumoured minimum of 1GB GDDR5 Video ram is a massive increase alone.
@Ladiesman1447 lol. it probably could - but not look anywhere near as good. The Wii U has atleast double the Ram and 4x the video memory and better processors. Both games are excellent, though they are extremely linear titles - they have beautiful backdrops but their levels are technically no wider than Crash Bandicoot 1 on the psx. If you haven't noticed all ps3 exclusives are incredibly linear - they don't eat up vast computing resources so all available memory can be put into graphics.
That's not true, the levels are linear, but they take up a huge amount of processing power for the action set pieces. PS3 exclusives are linear, but they're also the most action packed. God of war 3 and uncharted 2 have action set pieces that still haven't been matched.
Learn your console history child. Wii was the first generation Nintendo didn't seem to care about graphics which has proven to hurt them. We don't even know about a Nextbox or a PS4. Both companies originally wanted a 10 year life for them. Personally I don't even see a reason for PS4 or Nextbox to be announced for another 3 or so years.
@psp785 ps3 is 4 1/2 year hardware and the wii underclocked dev kits are 50% more powerful the final console will be way more than 1.5 times ps3 probably 2.5. but thats not too bad when you consider the best looking ps3 games like killzone 3 etc look stunning even by todays standard no matter much more powerful consoles will become the games will always look good from now on unless the developer has no artistic skill
Jeez, everyone is like HOLYCRAP THIS LOOKS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! This definately isnt that impressive. Try playing the crysis games or even some games that have been out on the 360 and ps3 for years.... Welcome to modern day gaming, easily impressed nintendo fans.
@BryceHunterTV It's a tech demo. It looks amazing for a tech demo.
Look at the tech demo for the PS3 and 360, they were shit and look at the games they run today. The WiiU will be capable of graphics much better than these.
@TheDoppleGamer I wouldn't be surprised if that ended up happening. The Wii U's power would be great for showcasing Okami's original concept (search for Okami Prototype A on youtube), and the controller would be perfect for brush techniques.
when the ps4 xbox 720 are out they will pwn this....
just kidding because the fan boys are forgetting that it is very lightly that the next gen console from Sony and ms will only have HDMI out put and not use the normal component cable so yeah this is the best you can get without a HD TV.....
This is real time, not cgi. if you take two mins to search for 'wii u demo' on this site, you will see people using this demo. You can alter the lighting and move the camera... In real time! its not cgi! This is pretty incredible for an early demo.
@sangolt88 because showing the gaming industry a pre-rendered video to show off their new console would make absolutely zero sense? I think we're past the point of needing to prove that a computer can load a file
Cant none of u realize that its a tech demo!!! Besides, i will be gettin this, cause im tired of Ps3 & Xbox360 people saying about there graphics, i had'em both till they bricked on me after warranty ran out, what a joke LOL im glad they broke cause i got sick and tired of the lag during regular games and the f--kn frame drops on both of them!!! i dont wanna hear anything about nintendo's graphics because they always had smoooooooth frame rates, which in my opinion is what makes a game :) :) :)
@Mac11em I have a more solid proof. You have to push buttons, in order for things to happen in this demo. Source: 3xW gamespot COM /features/6317199/e3-2011-nintendo-wii-u-inside-and-out/p-2 . html
@sangolt88 It isn't CGI. You might have seen by now, but a lot of people have commented on how reps were doing things like moving the controller and changing the camera angle.
Wow, this looks great :O it looks like a really high quality PS3 game, maybe better. And this is just the beginning of it's life cycle! It's able to do more :)
And I bet it will be able to crush the current gen graphics and deliver graphics above Crysis and maybe even the new Metro when properly optimized if the rumored HW is true.
Good 3rd party support, and decent HW overall it seems... I might buy this one.
I think the controller is cool but not fit for typical core games like Shooters and many action games. Stick layout is flat out bad though in my opinion.
@wertyuioqp1 low res textures? How can you even tell that? What I'm wanting is an actual HD feed of this tech demo. :P Then I can really see how it looks.
Looks like a step above current consoles. Kind of like the GeForce 8800/Radeon 38x0 series were a step above Geforce 79x0/Radeon X19x0 parts. Still looks like it was initially rendered at 1280x720 though, perhaps 1024x576.
Even if there really is no difference, I will take this above DX7 class fixed function graphics (e.g. the Wii1) as long as you give me my HD Zelda and Metroid.
i think its real, if u look at the end. The 2nd fish has sum weird graphics error when it pops out of the water. Maybe uintentially, but that just shows us that it is a true real time rendering, i think.. :)
@MEGAINDIEROCK Its an infomercial, they'll say it'll make gold for you to buy it. Just cos Nintendo say something, it don't mean its true. I still fear its CGI.
@LordXamot Other than the fact that the controller itself doesn't render anything. It will be a console wirelessly transmitting the images onto the controller.
@JuggaloARBY It's using (essentially) an underclocked hd4870 which is 4x faster than current consoles and less than half as fast as average PC graphics cards (hd5870/gtx560). So it's pretty powerful :D
Arguing over the graphical fidelity of future consoles, in which we know very little about, seems pretty pointless. Try to keep things civilised ;)

For the moment, NIntendo is saying that the Wii U supports just one touch-screen controller per console. So you won't have to buy several of them. They are still not sure wether you can bring your controller to a friend's house an interact with his controller in some way. Luckily it is a long time until the console releases so they have plenty of time to figure these things out.

psp785 8 months ago
@psp785 Wrong.
This is a tech demo, but unlike the kind you are referencing, this was actually running on the console and there is a part in it that allowed people with the controller to look around while the bird was stopped from the birds eye on the screen. That wouldn't be possible unless it was all being rendered by the console which means that if it had been a normal game it would look just like that.

@psp785 Most tech demos run as footage and every Nintendo console has games that exceed its tech demo's on the system. I don't know where you got the info that the console games won't live up to them. At least the ones made by Nintendo live up to them.
Also, again, this tech demo allowed interaction, it wasn't just shown.
In the video you see no tessellation but it's known that the card theirs is based on can does it well. /watch?v=9RELgrQyQj0 This is likely far from all the console can do.

2. You compare the Wii2 which is reported to be 50% greater than a PS3/360 as the difference between a NGC and Wii? WoW! Ladies and gentleman he just said the PS3 and 360 have graphics on par to the Wii.
3. PC will always be ahead of console gaming. Always.

@ThePlatypusCode console gaming is way better, you got a variety of games from all genres yet on pc you got shooters and stratergy and nothing else all the best franchises are on consoles. why would the public buy new consoles every 5 years or so if pc gaming was so great? Gaming would die if it were not for console's the sales dont lie, games sell a massive amount more on a console than pc, in fact pc gaming is a tiny percent of the market probably 1% of all games sold are for pc games.
SuperMagnum83 8 months ago
@SuperMagnum83 Umm.... maybe I didn't make myself clear that I was talking about PC gaming graphics not the games itself. PC graphics took no time to get ahead of the PS3, something that was bound to happen.
What differs from console and PC gaming is the constant upgrading of the system. With PC gaming we sometimes need to upgrade our systems to keep up within a five year span. With console we can purchase a system cheaper than a PC costs knowing it will play games for the next five years.

Yeah, that must be it *rolls eyes*. And Sony will continue to make a more powerful console because that's now their competitive edge, they're not going to gain any market share by having less powerful hardware. It's common sense.
Ladiesman1447 7 months ago
@Ladiesman1447 Then how did the Ps2 dominate with weaker hardware? How did the Wii Dominate with weaker hardware? How did the DS become the most sold handheld of all time with weaker hardware then the PSP? Since the Ps4 was confirmed to be weak next gen then i'd be surprised if it didn't win next gen, but then again if sony over prices it then it won't sell very well .
supernovacomics 7 months ago
@supernovacomics
First off, PS4 hasn't been confirmed to be weak, you've made that up. All Sony has said is that they won't make as big of an investment. Look at the Vita, it's close to the PS3 in performance and the price of a 3DS.
As for why the weaker systems have dominated in sales, it's a different reason for each. PS2 won because it had the best game library, came out earlier and had massive hype. Wii won in sales because of price tag and gimmick.
Ladiesman1447 7 months ago
@Ladiesman1447 Gimmick- A trick or device intended to attract attention, publicity, or business. Nintendo have always been competitive with graphics until Wii so that proves you're just a fanboy basing info on the Wii. Forgot to mention this "This next gen will be about delivering creative and innovative gameplay and we wil be designing title for the less serious gamers and women." -Jack Tretton.
I'm not even a big fan of Nintendo but I think this shows promise. :p
supernovacomics 7 months ago
@supernovacomics
No, it proves I know what I'm talking about and you don't. Wii was more successful than the GC and N64 combined, ergo the strategy they used for the Wii (weak hardware, but cheap price tag and gimmick) is what they'll stick with.
And guess what, they have! Wii U is exactly that. Nintendo no longer relies on graphics to win market share, they try to do it now with gimmicks, like 3D, motion controls, now the tablet controller. You, as a nintendo fanboy, should know that.
Ladiesman1447 7 months ago
@Ladiesman1447 Which is why it's more powerful then the Ps3 and they are getting thrid party support.
How am I a fanboy when i own all 3 consoles and you're the 1 saying the Ps4 and xbox will blow this away no matter what and they always have shit graphics? Lol look in the mirror
supernovacomics 7 months ago
@supernovacomics
It's marginally more powerful than the PS3, which will be 6 years old by the time Wii U comes out, that's not impressive. As for 3rd party support, it's only good by Nintendo standards, a new console getting ports from last/current gen, that's pretty poor.
I didn't say Nintendo always has shit graphics. And you are a fanboy, it's obvious by how defensive you're getting, and by how weak your points are.
Ladiesman1447 7 months ago
@Ladiesman1447 The tech demo for Wii U was made in a short time and it was impossible to reproduce on the Ps3, developers have said that it was marginally more powerful based on the dev kits but Nintendo later confirmed that it was underclocked. What's wrong with getting ports from this gen? It can't get games from next gen immediatly cause it's in development. (Killer Freaks from outer space) It's a next gen game but it's in early dev so it looks unimpressive

Are you serious? Why don't you think about it for a second and then tell me what might be wrong about that.

@Ladiesman1447 Dude every console gets ports from last gen before getting new games. Especially Nintendo. How bad would it be to buy a Wii U then have no games that you wanted this gen. Some people might not have this gen consoles but they want a game from this gen. If consoles have ports from last gen then it is a good thing and it's not like the Wii U isn't getting new games.
supernovacomics 7 months ago
@supernovacomics
No they don't, this is the first time its happened. All new consoles have shown off new games, this is the first time a next gen console has launched where they have primarily shown what will be year later ports of current gen games. It shows Nintendo has made a enxt gen console to compete with current gen playstation and xbox, what's going to happen when the nextbox and ps4 come out?
Ladiesman1447 7 months ago
@Ladiesman1447 Also this is coming out in the lifetime span of this gen and since graphics are it's limits for a few years then the ps4 and 720 won't be that far ahead (Especially Ps4) and the Wii got twilight princess as a port from gamecube, Psp got jak final frontier as a port from the Ps2, it's not the first time it's happened and the xbox 720 will probably surpass the Wii U but not the same difference as the Wii vs xbox. It'll probably be no less then Ps3 vs xbox
supernovacomics 7 months ago
@supernovacomics
What do you mean it's coming out in the lifetime span of this gen? Hows that any different to any other next gen console, and what's that meant to mean anyway? Can you explain again about ps4 and 720 not being far ahead and the graphics limit thing, I don't understand what you were trying to say there.
And TP was a port, yes, Jak LOST frontier was not a launch port for the PSP. So you named ONE other example of it happening on another Nintendo console.....
Ladiesman1447 7 months ago
@Ladiesman1447 "We aren't planning on making the Ps4 as big as a jump as the Ps3"-Jack Tretton The Wii U has a zelda tech demo that is impossible to reproduce on the Ps3 without serious downgrading(Accroding to developers and Nintendo)and they were made in a short time with underclocked dev kits so the Ps4 won't be far behind but it won't be more powerful. The 720 can't be much more powerful since we've reached a graphic barrier until new tech is cheap enough it'll proably be slightly above.
supernovacomics 7 months ago
@supernovacomics
Jump in hardware is all relative. The jump from PS2 to PS3 was massive, the PS4 can still and probably will be a beast without having that same sought of technological leap. And what graphical barrier have we hit? AMD’s director of ISV relationships Neal Robison said that the next-generation Xbox will offer graphics that will be on a par with the type of effects viewers saw in the movie Avatar.
Ladiesman1447 7 months ago
@Ladiesman1447 The jump from ps2 to Ps3 was not as massive as the jump from ps1 to ps2, it's plausible that the Ps4 can still be more powerful then the Wii U but the chances of that arent big and wouldn't be smart on Sony's part since they lost alot of money on video games due to the Ps3 selling for less then the manufactors demanded. The xbox bieng on par to Billion dollar movie on average gameplay that'd make the 720 fail due to the price of the tech needed to make games and the console itself
supernovacomics 7 months ago
@supernovacomics
The Wii U isn't much more powerful than the PS3, there's no chance of the PS4 being weaker than the Wii U, it would never happen, there would be no point in releasing a PS4 at all if that were the case. Neither of us can comment on the price and success of the next Xbox, all we can do is take the word of AMD, who is the supplier of both the Wii U's and Xbox's graphics cards.

@Ladiesman1447 It'd alot more powerful then the Ps3. If it's using the radeon r700 series then idc what no nothings say cause it should be 4 times more powerful then the Ps3. Where do you come to the conclusion that it's slightly more powerful then the Ps3 if the Ps3 can't handle the tech demos from an underclocked dev kits.

@Ladiesman1447 This 1 probably but not in 1080p. It can't handle the zelda tech demo though.

supernovacomics 7 months ago

Well we'll find out, no point arguing about it. Based on what I've seen and heard though, I'm not expecting it to compete with the PS4 or next Xbox, I think the gap will be smaller than this gen.
Ladiesman1447 7 months ago
@Ladiesman1447 Yeah but you have to remember, The only reason Nintendo fell behind this gen is because of the jump from standard to HD and they knew they'd profit with standard but now they can continue to be competitive with specs just they have been doing all the time until the Wii.

@supernovacomics It wasn't resolution, the PS3 and 360 still look better at standard res, look at BO on Wii, then look at the same game on both.
HaloSpartanG13 4 months ago
@supernovacomics if the Wii U gets full 3rd party support and at a competitive price I may well make the jump from PS3. By the sound of Devs on the Wii U it should well be capable of running all current gen games at 1920x1080p native. Not the usual 576/600/720p and 960x1080 upscale we're used to on ps3 and xbox. The rumoured minimum of 1GB GDDR5 Video ram is a massive increase alone.

chadheck96 6 months ago
@Ladiesman1447 lol. it probably could - but not look anywhere near as good. The Wii U has atleast double the Ram and 4x the video memory and better processors. Both games are excellent, though they are extremely linear titles - they have beautiful backdrops but their levels are technically no wider than Crash Bandicoot 1 on the psx. If you haven't noticed all ps3 exclusives are incredibly linear - they don't eat up vast computing resources so all available memory can be put into graphics.
liveswired 6 months ago
@liveswired
That's not true, the levels are linear, but they take up a huge amount of processing power for the action set pieces. PS3 exclusives are linear, but they're also the most action packed. God of war 3 and uncharted 2 have action set pieces that still haven't been matched.
Killzone 2, every level speaks for itself.

Learn your console history child. Wii was the first generation Nintendo didn't seem to care about graphics which has proven to hurt them. We don't even know about a Nextbox or a PS4.

Even if there really is no difference, I will take this above DX7 class fixed function graphics (e.g. the Wii1) as long as you give me my HD Zelda and Metroid.
