RUMOR - Wii U to be the 'best of the current gen' by a large amount
More rumors on the Wii U power, but this time they're coming from a source that has been spot-on in the past. It's a NeoGAF poster, but he's been proven to have accurate info in the past. Last big rumors we heard from this guy referred to Konami wanting Project Ogre on Wii U, but Kojima shooting it down, as well as Contra and Castlevania 3DS existing at some point. With that said, here's what he's heard about the Wii U...
(Wii U is the) "best of the current generation by a country mile but not significantly beyond that. ...The games are going to look closer to 2012 games on 2006 hardware than they will 2015 games on 2013 hardware, if that makes sense."
In other words, don't expect the system to deliver graphics similar to the next Xbox or Playstation, but it should be able to trump 360/PS3 games we see nowadays, so long as the developers put their time in!
