Slow CPU Will Shorten Wii U's Life - DICE Dev
 

ii U's limited technology might lead to Nintendo's new console having a shorter lifespan when the Xbox 720 and PS4 arrive.

Nintendo’s Wii U has come under a lot of fire over the last few days with many early adopters in the US claiming that the processing power inside isn’t actually up to much.

Even Metro: Last Light's developers have described the Wii U’s CPU as 'horrible’ and ‘slow’ and backing up these claims is DICE’s lead designer, Gustav Halling.

So thats 3 DEVS and counting that think Wii U CPU sucks.

And what would those devs say about me still using the Commodore CD32 as gaming console?

Motorola 68xxx FTW ;)

@marty370 Still not convinced gaming experience is not only about processing power :questionmark:

No, he is only convinced that Sony is the best and everything else sucks.

The N64 had more power than the PS1 - It Failed
The Gamecube had more power than the PS2 - It Failed
The Wii had a LOT less power than the PS3 - It f*cking Pwned.

He created a second slow cpu thread.....wow now he is spamming his fanboy ****

any dev pissed at he specs saying its horrible/slow blah blah blah are probably simply pissed that they are forced to code specifically and not just port crap to all systems at once.

what did bethesda blame skyrim issues on?? the console, not their work..... but then again, the most epic game maker said the ps3 was sh*t so it must be right? the ps3 failed big time, game over, it lost :p get real lol /sarcasm

crappy slow hardware or lazy greedy devs?

you can bet that first party titles will be awesome and run just fine on the "horrible cpu"
im pretty much only interested in wii-u exclusives anyway

Since when does nintendo care about Specs? They only care about Mario and Yoshi
