It was recently reported that Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed developer Sumo Digital said Wii U graphics are on-par with current generation consoles. This claim was actually stated by Eurogamer, not the developer. When Sumo Digital was talking about Wii U graphics, it was in fact referring to the Wii U version of Sega’s upcoming racing game, which is graphically “on-par” with current generation consoles or “maybe even better.”
Eurogamer’s Headline: Sega: Wii U graphics on-par with PlayStation 3, “maybe even better”
Eurogamer’s First Sentence: British developer Sumo Digital’s new Sonic racer is graphically “on-par” with current generation consoles – “or maybe even better”, according to publisher Sega.
Update: Eurogamer Apologizes For Misleading Wii U Graphics Headline
Media should really First check the info before publishing
Get the penis out your butt.
Yet comments like these are left here all the time, wtf is wrong with you guys???
Get cancer
Keep the penis in your butt and get AIDS :)
Lol, I don’t swing that way, but have fun with your AIDS and now cancer too :’)
I love how my comment got deleted because I pointed out that this article was stolen from wiiudaily
You guys need to stop being fake. By deleting my previous comment, you just admitted to stealing articles from elsewhere. Low, very very low.
And ReviewTechUSA reported first, so they also stole.
apparently, only one news source can report on a peice of news, so when that first one reports on it, everyone else is stealing right? god you’re dumb.
Just stumbled on this site and saw this turd’s avatar. Go suck a dick stratisfire. C ya forever pussy!!!
10/10 master trole u are a good trole caling him a pusy and turd lul good troling skilz
Dude, don’t even waste your time replying to idiots like these. They just drop comments and never return. This site should have a “flag for removal” button or something.
Exactly that’s what I think, or a report button or atleast a way to make certain peoples comments just not show
It should have a membership system to post comments like certain news sites.
Truee, I have a f.b, twitter,fanzila, and youtube for my Wii U group! but Im actually making an open-world community so its not just news and rumors Its actually accessible and run by all the members so anyone can log in & post, upload, tweet, or just see whats new on all the mainstream social networks. (because nintendo wont do it) But most sites like well I wont say names but, seem like its some competition and get all pissy. I would think they would want to work together to get a project like this off the ground; but nope they call it trolling? wtf ever man. Ill keep building up on my 106 member community myself. smh
LOL. that has got to be, the most random, and idiotic comeback i have ever seen. and whats wrong with my avatar? its the fucking joker, how could that be so insulting that you feel the need to call me a turd and tell me to suck a dick? i think its fucking hilarious, but stupid.
But they deleted the allegations of stealing. Does an innocent man run?
first off, why are you replying to me 2 months later? and second, how is it stealing if it’s news? every news site should be able to post news, it’s that simple. who cares about who reported on it first, if its relevant to the type of news that your site talks about it, why not talk about it?
umm thats how everyone does it.
This^
Incorrect Costa :P Someone actually told me to re-read the article’s headline and first sentence.
It wasnt about them checking the infi, they chamged it on purpose to have people click kn it, and now fanboy haters are getting mini boners becase of it
Who cares.
Just gotta love that media spin
They just used a provocating headline to make more people reading their article.
I didn’t read it anyway^^
Here’s a good one I found on the escapist.
Half life 3 and borderlands two’s girlfriend mode.
The half life 3 bit of the news was that half life 3 was not announced.
Horray for misleading an audience to get views!!!
just release the U already, Nintendo.
Next month, I’ve got two words for ya, alyerpal– NINTENDO DIRECT!
Yes please, my Wii just broke today and I’m in need of the Wii U asap.
I was just getting to the good bit in Xenoblade, too. Now I won’t be able to play it until the Wii U comes out :(
there’s a problem in manufacturing the console right now.

I wonder who has more reliable articles. Sickr or eurogamer
Hmmmmmmmmmm…
In this case: Sickr. Normally: Eurogamer.
Misleading titles is missleading.
ummm….sickr get him articles from sources man, he is not pulling stuff up his ass. just saying.
How is this suddenly news? Bullshiz like this has been going on forever. Hell, damn near every article on N4G is like that. Pfft, just look at this site, 300 odd comments on the articles with heated titles and only like 30 on articles genuinely expressing something ‘good’.
Same on this website the articles that say bad things about Nintendo are insanely more popular than those that say good (no offence to the journalism style its just an observation)
omg i hate N4G sooo much, why should i have to leave the webs tie to go to another website just to read the article
Well dunno about Euro ganmer getting it wrong, because I had read this elsewhere to see it get put differently on MNN
Yeah, why do so many news sites and stuff want the Wii U to fail?
Becouse it is much more entertaining than success it’s called tall poppy syndrome we like seeing others fail that’s why lots of people were on the “3DS is going to flop” boat watching and laughing as a big company was taking losses ( I wasn’t before you get any ideas that I’m a Sony fanboy) and that is why many other people are siting and laughing at the “PSvita Is going to flop” and “HaHa Onlive has gone out of businesses” many of us would much rather have a entertaining story of a company fall from grace as they made a bad decision and how much cleverer than a big million dollar company beouse we saw it coming. It’s sensationalist and appeals to schadenfreude (look it up if you don’t know it it’s a good word)
These type of news might not be considered real “news” but it gives you some sort of insight into the minds of the developers and stuff.
Who has their mind in the right place and who doesn’t.
It can also be shown in their games, if all they care about is graphics then the game will most likely look good but the gameplay will be mediocre at best…
Everything I have read about Sony the last 4-5 years only made me more convinced to never spend a single coin on their games on consoles…
And Microsoft…I don’t even bother…
Not allays:
MGS4 looked good and was fun same with Assassins Creed . but there are some developers Epic games and square-enix have both been quoted as saying “this generation is effectively over as we cant make games look any better” this is when graphics can make a game mediocre. Final Fantasy 13 is one of those it’s like the developers said “get the visuals out and make them look amazing and real” and then one person said to the other “oh shit, were making a game” so they put some rubbish linear RPG elements in and pushed it out the door so they could make another “game”
I was going to put a video on here but then i realised that it may have not been appropriate for small children
I can agree on MGS4 but AC 1…wasn’t that fun…2nd somewhat…I don’t like the fighting mechanics that much, it feels a bit…stiff..
But AC3 seems to be a bit better on it…
AC1 was my first PS3 game i was kind of grouping it in with the whole series
Square enix said that no current generation and next gen can EFFECTIVELY can run the luminous engine. That would be like playsstation 5. Read article on ign. An interview about the new ff mmorpg (or patch)
I personally care what the power of the Wii-U is. I play video games to have fun, not gawk over the consoles specs. As long as a game is fun it could look like it was built for the NES and I’d still have fun. It seems gamers have lost sight on what video games are about.
Well no shit. Obviously.
This isn’t news. maybe If these reviewers would look deeper than graphics to tell how good something is. you want good graphics? go outside. You want a good game? play nintendo.
SHOCKER -.-
It’s funny how Sickr/Alba do the same things and now they’re reporting about it.
So…? If the Sonic racer’s Wii U graphics are just as good if not better that the other current gen consoles, why the hell would this not mean that the graphic capabilities are just as good? Drawing conclusions people.
