The final specifications for Wii U have apparently leaked online from Nintendo developer site Wario World. The details for the specifications were then passed onto VG Leaks who have published the information that was found on the developers site. Here’s what we can presume are the final specifications for Wii U.

“GPU7” AMD Radeon™-based High Definition GPU. Unique API = GX2, which supports Shader Model 4.0 (DirectX 10.1 and OpenGL 3.3 equivalent functionality)
Memory:
Mem1 = 32MB Mem2 = 1GB (that applications can use)
Storage:
Internal 8 GB with support for SD Cards (SD Cards up to 2GB/ SDHC Cards up to 32GB) and External USB Connected Hard Drives
Networking:
802.11 b/g/n Wifi
Video Output:
Supports 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p and 480i
Video Cables Supported:
Compatible cables include HDMI, Wii D-Terminal, Wii Component Video, Wii RGB, Wii S-Video Stereo AV and Wii AV.
USB:
Four USB 2.0 Ports
Cool
In deed!
Agreed.
Succeed!
Awesomeed
I’m freezing.
i LOVE the specs but one thing i keep seeing is some small amount of memory
C-C-C-Combo Breaker!
dont worry you can get a 128 gb sdxc card from best buy for $99 that gives you 136 gb of flash storage oh buy way gamers are running 128 gb sdxc cards in 3ds
ONLY THREE! THEN HOW DOES IT RUN UNREAL ENGINE 4. MARK REIN SAID IT CAN HANDLE IT! THIS MUST BE FAKE SPECS ILL WAIT TILL THE SYSTEM COMES OUT.
yes 4 3 tb usb hdd 12 tb
So that past article on final specs was a rumor?
Yes it was.
Ugh, it said it was real. Maybe I saw it before an update.
This a rumor too. Don’t believe everything you read on the internet.
We have had like 7 leaks of wii-u with different specs. It amazes me that people believe any of these. It’s not hard to make up stuff and post it on the internet.
Leave luck to the heavens…
Don’t worry i know this is not the real specs.
Together Wii U.
well….what version of amd? i mean what series? 770? or what?
custom
Anon= dumb idiot
Read before you post dude, and awnser the question
rv770-radeon 4850
Like the specs man. Heavy stuff.
really the 3 braodway cores is extreamly underwhelming.
Tech savvy or not, I’m STILL buying it!
How so?
The broadway cores are extremely weak, even compared to low end pcs.
According to Nintendo’s website, the Wii U’s CPU is IBM POWER-based. They no longer uses the Broadway processors.
That basically debunks the entire article from the get-go, then, doesn’t it?
Thank you! I’ve been waiting for someone to say that. People are just too stupid to go on their website and check. Yeah, it’s IBM based, this stuff is bull
You’re welcome Chocer. Just two more days until we get answers from the Nintendo of America President himself.
you know the broadway is a ibm power based ? ….
I wasn’t aware of it, Maka. The more we know… the better.
Ok This is great news!!
Nice!
It’s not even news…
it would better if they made it usb 3.0 but thats okay
Just be thankful they made wifi run on the N network.
really? i see no real point in a console using usb 3.0. i mean hell there’s barely any point in using it for pc. i mean yeah it’s faster, but usb 2.0 is fast enough lol.
It seems people whom these things think we have better things to do XD
Make* I’m smart ^.^
When Nintendo is essentially forcing you to buy external, USB-connected hard drives, USB 3.0 would have been really nice to have.
the thing is, there arent really too many afforable devices that even use usb 3.0 yet, so there really is no point
Other than 3.0 being 10 times faster? If They’re gonna be cheap and and not include a hard drive, forcing me to store data on an external drive for Wii U, the least they could do is make it, I dunno, FASTER? Cheapo fucks.
Then don’t buy it little kid! Stop bitching
People want to play Nintendo games and are frustrated by a few oversights the Big N made. You’re the only one here sounding like a little kid.
if nintendo did add usb 3 then people would complain about the price
A $10 difference is worth it if it means faster data access and an added means of future-proofing the console.
Graphics and improving USB ports don’t matter… fun and games matter.
Says the graphics whore with issues.
Unless they make their own external hard drives, then I don’t see how they’re scamming us.
well, to have a usb 3.0 harddrive, it cost twice as much as a normal 2.0. it’s really not worth it.
Come on Nintendo, Hard drives are incredibly,insanely cheap. For 20 bucks I can get a good 250 gb hard drive. Nintendo’s cheap…..
Nobody’s listening to you, Garlic. Nintendo says they want to make an affordable console. That’s why they use SD cards port on the control deck and Game Pad. There’s always an option for you to purcase SD cards (8 to 32 GB) and an external hard drive.
yeah, nintendo’s cheap because they’re not forcing you to use there own special branded hard drives unlike microsoft and sony right? god, nintendo are such assholes for letting us use whatever hardrive we want arent they?
Actually USB 3.0 is very important, because like you said it is faster and out perform USB 2.0 in speed.You are right about few PC are using it, but in the end future games are increasing memory storage.If Nintendo or other supporting 3rd party publishers in the future makes a game or multiple games that could be downloaded on the Nintendo Network that have 10-25GB or even high amounts of GB and have portable Hard Drives with Speed of USB 2.0, than you will have to wait hours to even download a game of 10GB.
So………..USB 3.0 is very important for big storage games and its very convenient for consumers with Hard Dives of 1-3TB(Terra Bites) and USB 3.0 will catch up fast, because even some affordable Hard Drives have establish USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 compatible.
ok look. when you actually use a usb 3.0 usb hard drive, you will only notice a very tiny difference in terms of speed. the only way to make sure that you’re actually getting a high speed is to use an ssd, usb 3.0 DOES NOT matter when it comes to external hard drives. again if you want a high speed hard drive, get an ssd.
Is this good news?
It is good news, but since it’s a rumor, you need to take it with a grain of salt.
please explain because im not too tech savy but i know a thing or two. and this isnt much stronger than a ps3. i was hoping at least double the ps3 power.
You’re on the wrong page , here let me re-direct you
http://www.ps4-super-power-fanboy-rumours.net
lololol
This is nintendo we’re talking about here, they pride themselves of using old technology and making it seemingly new
3DS using that 2006 Pica200, lol.
Vita using a 2010 ish SGX543MP4.
Nintendo are the undisputed kings of dated, crappy technology in tandem with gimmicks. So they don’t have to spend $$$ on a future proof device.
When the bitter truth rolls up and they (the fanboys) find out that the graphics won’t be up to par as much as they think, it’s the same 2006 retort! GRAPHICZ DUNT MATTUR HURR DURR!11 ITZ DA GAEMPLAY!111111111
um yeah. graphics still dont really matter. some of the best games this generation came out on the wii exclusively. and look at the 3ds and the vita. the 3ds has some pretty damn good games on it, but it doesnt have as good of graphics as the vita. and the vita has what, 10 games total? and maybe 3 of them that aren’t just straight up ports are ok?
Yer but most of those exclusives were published by nintendo.
does it matter? they’re still great games. all that proves is that the potential for awesome games was clearly there, but only nintendo really utilized it.
Infinitely more better titles can be found on High definition machines; not the Wii.
Stopped reading the rest since you’re clearly being an idiot. Educate yourself first, then reply to this.
Sooo… how are those Vita sales doing then?
+10
“more better” lol ok. and also. I NEVER SAID that all of the best games were on the wii. i said SOME (if you can learn how to fucking read) of the best games were on it. you are seriously a dumb illiterate fuck. i feel bad for your mother for finding out she was pregnant with you too late so she couldn’t get you aborted. i understand how much you love pretending to be a troll on this site, but it’s gotten to the point where you are no longer entertaining, and you’re just a flaming douchebag. if you seriously can’t stand nintendo THIS MUCH, then kindly fuck off.
well said not everything is a horse pwer race .
if that was the case then everything is absoloutly shit compared to PC’s . which it isnt . a 3ds is far more entertaining that a PC .
well, it all depends on preferences. i mean look at day z for instance. its a mod for an existing game, yet it’s one of the most entertaining experiences i’ve had in a while. and same goes for minecraft. those games would never exist if it weren’t for the flexible nature of pc gaming. but then you have games on the 3ds like mario 3d land and resident evil revelations, that just wouldnt really be the same on other platforms and are both amazing games.
>3DS is far more entertaining than a PC.
Ha…
HAHAHAHAHA.
Talking shit when you get called out for the retard that you are. Classic.
You’re very well implying Wii U had much of meaningful exclusives beyond the same 12 titles many fanboys bring up. There are so few worthwhile titles to bring up on the device, that it’s utterly retarded to make it seem like the system was worth it.
It sucks, that’s the end of that. It never revolutionized gameplay, it never lived up to its hype, it never did anything meaningful for this generation. Although it did make sure that Microsoft would market the shit out of Kinect and steal a sizeable chunk of that market. Nintendo is running out of options, so they made the Wii U. An obvious show of desperation on their part.
So what the fuck are you going to do about it? Right, nothing.
omfg. do you even read? im talk talking about inovation or even teh systems AT ALL. im talking about how much of a worthless, retarded shit you are. you seriously have no clue as to what the fuck im talking about do you? obviously not, since for SOME reason, out of that rant, you STILL think im talking about the wii. you are seriously, one of the dumbest pieces of shit i have ever encountered on thie page, even the internet as a whole. you are in such denial that, rather confront what i’ve said about YOU personally, you just retaliate back to talking shit about the wii. you’re a pathetic piece, and i hope you die a slow and depressing death,of which no one will care about, seeing as you were supposed to be aborted.
And he continues to talk shit. Such is the dwindling IQ of today’s failed abortions. He can’t even reply to what was said, so he’s just going to talk shit instead. It’s the only thing you’d be able to do without getting thrown through a fucking window and onto the pavement. So continue on and pretend that you’re doing something special to defend yourself. You silly little keyboard warrior.
Thank you…glad to see I’m not the only one fed up with coming to read news and constructive comments and having to read this prick’s whining, day in and day out…
“more better”
jk
I don’t think that was bad grammar anyway. lol or maybe it is….
I’m confused.
NO WAIT. IT IS. HA
HAHAHAHAHA
THIS ISNT AN OPINION AT ALL ITS A STRAIGHT OUT FACT
Your ignorance amazes me
and the 3ds is a LOT better platform than the vita , so what is your point ??? glasses free 3d isnt 2006 tech on a handheld is it ?
It is not a “better platform” by any means.
Hardware wise, the Vita is in practically every way a person can imagine. The 3DS is only where it is because developers feel safe with the system that only mindless sheep will buy in excess.
Following your logic, Wii was the better platform, because all you ever imply is sales, but guess what? It isn’t. The better platforms are the HD twins and PCs.
“The 3DS is only where it is because developers feel safe with the system that only mindless sheep will buy in excess. ”
Meaning it has more (interesting) games, and therefore is the better system? Yes, you’re right.
If the Vita had the games the 3DS had, I would buy a Vita – but it hasn’t – so that’s all there’s to it.
“It hasn’t”
And you know this how…?
So do you think excess Mario and shitty titles that would be better off as low priced digital titles make for a better library?
The Vita hasn’t been on the market nearly as long and the library it has now absolutely obliterates the one the 3DS had at this very point last year. I’ll add a few months to that, and it’d still have nothing in comparison.
Lol, you make this easy for me, I only have to respond at the first thing you said (which was incorrect) because the rest you said was all there to back your original statement up.
How do I know? Hmmm… It sure was a pretty wild guess, saying the Nintendo games will not appear on the Vita.
____________
On a side note; if the Vita will have a nice library (I’ll wait a year assuming there should be plenty by then) with more games of the quality of Gravity Rush and Persona 4, I probably will buy one, for now: I see absolutely no reason to do so.
Also I don’t understand why you spend your time on a website solely to bash Nintendo and its fans, even if my very comment is the reason you like trolling here, is it worth it? Do you have absolutely nothing better to do than to sit down and comment on a site of something you don’t even like? If that’s the case you’re a fucking pathetic loser.
Surely the better platforms are the ones that the individuals choose – just because something is proven to be technically superior doesn’t truly mean anything, if the companies behind them don’t release anything that individuals might want. Not everyone wants ‘the best’, sometimes they’re good with just what they perceive is ‘good for them!’
Knowing that fellow, he was very well implying it was. You haven’t seen any of his other comments.
The 3DS is getting it’s support purely due to its sales patterns, developers are too chickenshit to take a dive and show their true talents on hardware that can do nearly everything better and demonstrate exactly how handhelds can hold their own against the mobile war.
The majority of 3DS releases are the same predictable Mario titles about 4 orso decent third party titles that are suited for retail, and the rest are literally stuff that’s fit for a digital download rather than full blown retail release. In fact, there are actually quite more mobile phone ports on 3DS than there are on the Vita. That’s a bit disturbing.
stop talking out of your sphincter you Anus breath. the 3ds has a lot of amazing games that are a lot lot lot more in depth than shitty mobile phone games , not to mention they are all in 3d .
once again , a spastic troll is a spastic troll…….
3ds has ten times as many games as good games as the shita .
i guess you will have to enjoy a gimped MGS HD collection with only 2 games in ‘QHD’ .
Haha, Aeolus, “more better” haha, what is this shit? hahahha. Give me one good reason why we should believe anything you say? You obviously just don’t like Nintendo, we get it, there isn’t any truth to your words, it’s just blind hatred. You think you’re lying to us well maybe… you’re lying to yourself? Really makes you think.
Now hold on – whilst his tone is aggressive, the point still remains….it’s already been revealed at this point to not be the most advanced of the three. Arguing this point is akin to continuing to bash your head against the wall – don’t, and remember that this is just about playing games you want, not about always being at the bleeding edge. Continuing to drag out that the console is the best isn’t an argument you will win – it’s simply not, but that doesn’t mean those who buy it won’t still enjoy whats released on it.
For the sake of it, you need to forget about the argument of graphics, gameplay, whatever else at this point…It’s all preference and personal choice out of what you want from your gaming experiences, and nothing more.
And he *or she…or pony?* is effectively summing it up.
I’ve owned my 3DS for nearly a year now and I am by no means impressed in the majority of the offerings so far. Played every game people have suggested, but besides KH (which honestly, feels like every other one) nothing stands out.
no one is denying the vita is a superior system in terms of tech but they have very little to offer to make people purchase it. software sells hardware, if they can’t get more software this will be a flop. sometimes the powerful systems don’t always sell the most.
So the ps1 and ps2 stinks compared to gamecube and n64?
MineCraft……Awesome Graphics right???….NO! ITS GAME PLAY!!!!HURR DURR HURR!!
Aeolus
Wat R U Doin
Aelous
Stahp!
Still going to be a generation back from the other two if their rumored specs are to be believed. 1gb of memory? The other two are looking at least 8gb of ram, but this should be fine to keep the first party games looking newish
It’s only a rumor. It’s not finalized until Nintendo says so.
It says 1GB of memory “For applications”.
When I think applications, I think stuff like the Wii Shop Channel and other such things, not games, so……….
I think Aplication’s means games . 1GB available for game’s is good!! , but there must be some memory for the gamepad stream .
I wonder if a developer decides to barely use the gamepad , can he utilize some extra memory?? . Like on the 3ds where capcom borrowed power from the 3ds’s second screen to use on the top screen .
Wii U has about 1.5GB of RAM, so “applications” is indeed probably implying the games. the 32mb is EDRAM.
indeed. 1gb available for games , doesn’t mean 1GB being chewed up by the gamepad’s streaming …
An app is something playable or all round runnable on a machine… Super mario is Nintendos killer app
8GB? Lol no. Most PC’s dont have that, and they run mutliple applications
The os is what kills ram the most in pc’s
I know, thats what i mean, at yet they still have those graphics. 8GB on a console is just entirely pointless.
my laptop has 4GB of RAM and it can barely Emulate a SNES game……(sarcasm)
You really thin either Sony or Microsoft are going to break the bank with their new systems.. I think Sony already learned a lesson on that…
still getting it regardless of specs ..
nintendo fan for life ^_^
Exactly :) and when you look at New super mario bros U. You can tell there is a graphics Difference cause you can see mario so clear and not pixealted on the Wii version. So summit is kept secret to be looking as good as it is shown
That has to do with the resolution. Wii=480p, Wii U=720p or 1080p.
You can make a game in 1080p that looks like an n64 game(very few polygons) but looks super crisp and clear.
Sounds cool to me. Enjoy these quiet moments, before the parade of Aeolus and Ness clones come to try to damper everyone’s mood. Don’t respond to them under any circumstances. My inbox is always inundated with that crap. Leave luck to heaven.
im glad you brought back that picture :)
You have raised the first line of defence , ”operatin human shield” . Now all we have to do is Blame Canada!!!
lol……….lol I remember that episode in south park
It was the movie XD . such a good film :) , Matt stone and Trey parker are the best guy’s ever , they have singl handedl made controversy acceptable !
Nice reference.
Quite right. Trolls like them need real lives. The only way to win with them is to deny a battle. Ignore them. I honestly don’t care much for specs since I don’t understand tech speak anyway and the Zelda Wii U visuals demo was enough for me to see the Wii U’s graphical potential. And I’m buying the console for the games, not the graphics.
You’ve become somewhat of a celebrity here. Mainly due to your motto and da govunah.
Is it sad that MyNintendoNews (at the moment) is filled with much more reasonable responses about a damn rumor than NeoGAF?
Espresso” CPU on the Wii U has three enhanced Broadway cores – it’s small but it packs a punch :P . I am fine with these specs , so it can outpeform a ps3 and 360 . All i needed to know . Even if by just a tiny bit .
You’re satisfied with barely outperforming nearly decade old machines?
…Jesus fucking Christ you fanboys have some LOW ASS STANDARDS.
At least i am not a spastified hater like you . Niga please , i have had a 360 and a ps3 and a wii since the day they all came out .
i will be buying a ps4 the day it comes out and i want it to be as powerfull as possible!!
BUT all i want for my wiiu is for it to have noticeably better graphics than the current gen to acompany the quite frankly AMAZING controll options available on wiiu .
just stop making a fool of yourself i know you just got back from the paralympics , but don’t take that out on us .
I bet you were saying the same stupid things about the 3ds !!
”the ps vita is gunna be so much better , blah blah blah i am spastic”.
your head is up your arse , you don’t know anything about gaming and you are a blatent 360 fanboy , GOOD DAY TO YOU SIR
*gallops towards sunset on high horse*
Sorry, type that in proper fucking English and I might start taking you seriously.
Nope , *gallops towards Aelous’s mum*
you can read it cant you ?? i cant be bothered with spell checks and grammar . I am not some university butt plug .
You are so proper your self “fucking” lol you are thr biggest loser in this planet nobody cares what you think, if you are so smart like you make yourself seem, then why dont you understand that?
Your always going on defending trolls (like yourself) about how grammar doesn’t matter.
Hypocrisy at its finest.
Get a dictionary,you say the same 4 words all the time.
“6” years =/= 10 years….
and if three enhanced Broadway cores mean Power7 (like many rumours said), ok…
by the way, true HD games only on Wii U or PC, live with that Aeolus “it starts talk crap” again…
The 360 is almost 7 years old and I specifically said “nearly decade old devices.” Stay in school kid, reading comprehension isn’t your forte.
And it can actually, POWER7 comes in a heap of configurations, so I wouldn’t be surprised if by “POWER7” they were more or less referring to the 32MB EDRAM since IBM is known for their PR talk bullshit. Doesn’t have to be the exact chip, just features taken from them would be enough for them to say “lol we put Watson into it”.
machines*
Idiot, xbox360 still hasn’t 7 years old, it has 6 years… Go study more moron, you can’t said that you have 15 if you have 14 years old, drone.
and again, Aeolus “it starts talk crap” again…
Nearly.
near·ly/ˈni(ə)rlē/
Adverb:
Very close to; almost: “David was nearly asleep”.
Synonyms:
almost – near – about – nigh – well-nigh – all but
Calling me an idiot when you can’t even demonstrate basic intelligence. That’s funny.
Let me draw, since trolls do not attend schools. If you hasn’t 16, you can’t drive, so, doesn’t matter if you have 15 and a half, you will get screwed anyway. So, doesn’t matter all this crap that you keeps saying, xbox360 has 6 years and nothing that you said will change that, as the fact that Wii U is the first true HD home console.
by the way, “nearly” to you is 3 years of distance? lol
The 360 was unveiled on May 12th, 2005.
You are basing “age” off of how long they’re present on the market. The 360 for all of what it is, in 7 fucking years old.
Therefore, YOU ARE WRONG.
unveiled =/= launched
keep failing like always…tsc tsc tsc
That’s why Aeolus “it starts talk crap” again…
Don’t try to cover up your idiocy. The fact of the matter is Nintendo is late to the HD game. Very, very late.
In this day in age, Amir… it’s NEVER too late.
Repeating, TRUE HD GAMES only on Wii U or PC.
by the way, Wii U was unveiled on E3 2011, so what’s your point? Do you think that Nintendo makes a console in 3 months? dumb ass…
The 360 was effectively finalized when it showed up; the Wii U was not, and seemingly still isn’t based on that previous headline on this very goddamn site.
Yeah, right, 3RRD showed how “The 360 was effectively finalized when it showed up;”
Try again..
RROD was a heatsink issue, and to this day 50% of users with the originals are affected by it. Not 100%.
I’m willing to bet their 360s very rarely did that, if at all. In any case, you’re still dodging the core of this argument. The Wii U is a late device. Deal with it.
“RROD was a heatsink issue”
If was a issue, xbox 360 wasn’t effectively finalized, and again, you fail.
Yeah, just like how finalized the Wii was with the overheating issues at launch involving Wiiconnect24 or the SSBB dual layered disc read errors.
Oh the hypocrisy.
Just under 20% is not ‘nearly’, moron.
That’s knowledge not intelligence.
Again, you constantly say grammar doesn’t matter.
Hypocrisyat its finest.
Have you ever thought that writing and composition might not be your forte, at all?
If it’s true what ibm said when they tweeted that it will use a power 7 chip, this rumour is fake as the p7 doesn’t use broadway and are available in a quad core as minimum
Stop overanalyzing IBM, please. I don’t know why you feel PR talk is helping your case, it is not. People know what they tweeted, leaks are showing otherwise. Simple as that.
CPU: IBM PowerⓇ-based multi-core processor.
GPU: AMD Radeon™-based High Definition GPU.
Source: http://www.nintendo.com/wiiu#/tech-specs
The Wii is using a PowerPC processor, which you should know is (but sadly don’t since you’re a mindless sheep):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerPC
basically Power architecture.
I’m talking about the Wii U specs, you fucking jackoff!!!!! It’s says “Power-BASED”… not PowerPC. There’s a possibility the Wii U’s CPU is based on Power7, but there’s no official from the company itself at the moment.
…there’s no official word*
So you basically did not read the fucking link.
Let me elaborate on that, POWERPC IS NO LONGER USED SEPARATELY; NEWER POWER7 CHIPS ARE USING THE FULL SET OF INSTRUCTIONS FOR IT. BASICALLY, IT WAS “ABSORBED” INTO POWER CHIPS IF YOU WANT TO CALL IT THAT.
Shut up meg,we will not listen to a low life criticizing about spelling
Don’t believe what you read on the internet, Meg.
Your stupidity is absolutely astounding.
Obvious, trollzilla… obvious. Shut the fuck up!
Aren’t you a mindless sheep? because you seem to be doing this because of few things:
1. You troll because you think all the other people who troll will think you are cool.
2. You have a poor family life so you choose to troll because you think you’ll get “friends” by trolling.
or
3. You are just another mindless Microsoft fangirl.. I mean boy who just follows the herd.
lol
IBM Power-based =/= IBM PowerPC… and this is from Nintendo’s site, not wikipedia, fail like always…
I don’t see what it matters if it’s on Nintendo’s site or not. Stop grasping at straws.
Shut your piehole, Meg.
and yet IBM Power-based =/= IBM PowerPC, this fact does not change.
Actually it does.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerPC
PowerPC and the architecture is now a part of newer Power chips.
Educate yourself and stop pretending to know what you’re talking about.
moron, Power-Based =/= PowerPC and old PowerPC =/= newer PowerPC(read 7), what’s your fucking point? Of course, new architectures is based on old architectures, but this don’t change the fact the “Power-Based” might be the new Power7 CPU, understand now? Try again, moron…
You really don’t fucking read or know shit. I’m done wasting my time on illiterate retards.
Oh and “might be” doesn’t help your argument either. Shows you’re a clueless dipshit even more.
Done wasting your time?
Cause a troll to leave = victory?
We need to know more about the memory…
Also, external harddrives but only USB 2.0 :(
xbox and ps3 aint got brill usb’s either XD. least they added 4 so there could mean summit in future that uses them up
XBOX and PS3 is 6 years old…
i wonder why this have been found on the Wario world site…Is there a legit reason? Will it be a new 3d wario game? God I hope so :3
Wario World is the site for developers, it has nothing to do with Wario, is just the name of the site. check by yourself: http://www.warioworld.com/
Gee, another rumour, must be legit.
Short answer, its more powerful than current gen, we know that for sure, and it wont be as powerful as the ps4.
Where does the caring come into this?
the fact that we get one more year of ports then shitty and i repeat shitty 3rd party support which means we get one year of solid 1st party releases the next e3 is shovel ware. then the following year a GREAT 1st party game next year shovel ware then a decent game again.
http://www.shovelware-presumptions.com
Except thats not guarrenteed, what so ever. Im buying the WiiU for 1st part and exclusives anyway.
I dont think nintendo is serious enough about third party but that ok cos I only buy nintendo for their first party as well.
thats*
I duno, they have alot of third party at the moment. The N64 didnt get third party due to cartridges and the psone selling more, gamecube didnt due to overwhelming ps2 sales, and the Wii didnt due to power, but mainly the controller mapping, games wouldve been difficult. However right now, its got 25GB disks, perfect controllers, and good enough specs. Its solely depends on how powerful the ps4/720 are, although you need to remember developers getting more and more used to the tech, the graphics are going to get alot better, so it could even be level with ps4/720 at launch in that sense.
Time will tell
Bull, we have at least 3 more years of crappy ports. Even if the 720 and PS4 were released tomorrow there will still be 360 and PS3 games for at least another year or two. While Microsoft will probably be quick to kill the 360 (based on how quick the original XBox was discontinued), Sony will probably keep the PS3 around for quite a while. (They still haven’t discontinued the PS2 yet!)
Just as the Wii had crappy ports of PS2 games, As long as the 360 and PS3 are still out, there will always be crappy ports for the Wii U with tacked-on controls.
please delete this comment sicker i accidently messed up when writing it.
You’ve come to the wrong place to whine and bitch about it, maricon. This is My NINTENDO News… not news for graphic prostitutes. The Wii U have already shown great potentials… especially games like ZombiU, Rayman Legends, Nintendo Land, New SMB2 (a.k.a. New Super Mario World), Batman: Arkham City: Armored Edition, Assassin’s Creed III, Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge, and Aliens: Colonial Marines. Think about the future instead of just tech specs. Enjoy the games… especially games coming to the Wii U.
Get N or Get OUT!!!!!
Wtf?
lol wtf indeed.
You are my new hero. We need to rally together and get all these damn Nintendo HATERS the fuck out of here. GET A LIFE FUCKING LOSERS!!!
Specs are mostly Irrelevant because:
Nintendo haters will complain REGARDLESS. it could have a fucking Flux Capasitor, and they would still Troll.
Nintendo Fans will buy it, regardless. We trust Nintendo. Let the Mobile Market consume the gaming market. It’s not impacting Nintendo sales, as they are supported by a nitch group of Nintendo fans. We’ll continue to live in our own little Nintendo Land. The rest of the world can participate and have fun, or continue bitching and being jealous of us.
THIS GODAMMIT
Even if nintendo made the most fucking powerful machine ever created by mankind, people would still fucking hate on it just because its nintendo.
You CANNOT please everybody in this world no matter what.
Pretty good. It will still be behind when the 720 and PS4 come out, but this sais DX10, and if the other two are ging to be DX11, then the wii U should surely be getting multiplatforms this gen! Itslike how a lot of pc games are scaled down for 360/PS3, now the ps4/720 games can be easily scaled down for wii U. This is good news, the only bad news would be the trouble of DX12 games on wii U, but that probably won’t happen soon.
Not very detailed, but looks good enough.
It’s not the specs. No ‘leaks’ are the specs. Okay?
Now please stop posting what’s obvious bullshit.
How is it “obvious bullshit?” You clearly know nothing about VGLeaks.
How many times have the specs been ‘leaked’? Hundreds – all different each time – so why would these ones be right?
“hundreds”
So…show me these “hundreds”.

I like the idea of using all my Wii cables on the Wii U in the short term while I buy up nicer cables eventually, but man, that’s going to make it tougher to sell my Wii. Looks like I’ll have to trade it in. Maybe there will be $199 Wii is stripped down with No Cables, Cords, and minimal storage?
You know an HDMI cable is only like $5 on Amazon. If you can’t afford a $5 cable, you probably shouldn’t be buying a $250+ game console plus games.
yeh i bought a HDMI cable for £2.99 recently for my little brother , i also bought him a 28” HD television for £100 ………..
i wouldn’t completely ruin your wiiu by using basic wii cables if i were U XD……
Why the fuck do you care so much about specs, Shut up and stop wahhh wahhh all day about specs. All I care about is all the new fun games that will come and the damn controller. Fuck specs
Fuck specs? Sure thing, fuck third party support too while you’re at it. They’re not going to waste their time scaling down shit like the Wii.
ps1>>>>n64 , ps2 >>>>>gamecube , xbox , DS >>>>>psp , 3ds >>>>vita .
specs shmecs bitch
Third party care about specs. Its just the way it is.
Third party care about sales. Its just the way it is.
Look at this standard issue excuse. As if sales guage system performance or “success”. Which is what you’re implying.
Xbox outsold the Gamecube by the way, and it was more powerful hardware. I want to see your excuse for that.
You also missed tons of “weaker” consoles that outright fell out of the market. Saturn, DC, etc.
the dreamcast was a beast!!! (sarcasm) . My point is specs are not everything !!!! Take the Nintendo DS for example , It has a bigger library of better games than the psp . It’s games are more innovative and seem more tailored for console .
so what happens if the ps4 makes sony go bust because it’s too expensive or whatever ??? what you gunna play , wiiu or ps4 ???
Why would we need an excuse for the Xbox outselling the Gamecube? Sometimes something just performs better than something else. Simple as, don’t think we won’t accept that.
Then don’t preach predictable bullshit that the “Weakest console always wins”. It is not the goddamn case.
the ps2 spit roasted the xbox , it’s always the case …….
and obviously i know the xbox was the most powerfull of it’s gen……..
people say things like ”well games sell better on ps3 than they do on wii” , mario kart wii = over 30 million , NSMBwii 25 million , wii sports – 79,000,000 (blowing faulse horn) .
Cod only sells tons because people add the ps3 and 360 together like they are the same fucking platform .
PS2 wasn’t the “weakest console”, stop this horseshit.
Aeolus: “Then don’t preach predictable bullshit that the “Weakest console always wins”. It is not the goddamn case.”
Funny coming from you who always goes on how the most powerful console always wins, when that also is not always the case. Example, PS2 and GC. NDS and PSP.
Please just stop, you are only embarrassing yourself…
I have said no such thing before. Stop putting words in my mouth you filthy, insolent, piece of shit.
“I have said no such thing before. Stop putting words in my mouth you filthy, insolent, piece of shit.” Amir… are you having PMS and vaginal bleeding or something?
Aeolus: “I have said no such thing before. Stop putting words in my mouth you filthy, insolent, piece of shit.”
Lol, did I hit a nerve? Yes you have. You have a reputation here for making clear your view on how the machine with the superior spec sheet is the victor. You’ve made that clear many times…
ps2 was indeed weaker than the gamecube and powerfull xbox . by quite a margin.
ps2 had one advantage over GC though , disc size .
it was hard to fit a game of say , GTA san andreas onto a 1.5GB disc .
no shit though , F=zero GX , Windwaker , metroid prime 1 and 2 etc etc etc made the ps2’s graphics look like well , shit !!! .

nuff said ….. the gamecube had better graphics , son ….
What was then
I have 3 words for you, NintendoCryBaby… BEST COMMENT EVER!!!!!
So this is how they realise complete backward compatibility, by using a similar cpu design. So one core with one thread would effectively become a wii cpu. They could use a multiplier for the clock. So the wii had 729MHz, they would probably use 3 or 4 times the clock frequency for the wii u. So 2.2 or 2.9 GHz. That would make the wii u at least 9 times as powerful as the original wii (assuming that the core had only one thread). If they add multi-threading (2 per core) it would make it at least 18 times as powerful.
You have to remember the WiiU uses its own audio card, so cpu memory is saved from that too.
Similar Design? Same people but I doubt its the same as the wii. as we dont know the clock of it yet
IBM said it’s based on a power7. Warioworld says it is based on the broadway. Maybe they somehow married both designs. Nintendo confirmed backward compatibility, so they have put a wii cpu somewhere, if they don’t want to emulate all wii games…
LMAO.
Look at those specs, not even an overclocked 360, that CPU is more like an overclocked Gamecube with added cores and some EDRAM to get it somewhere.
DX10.1/Open GL 3.3 equivalant R700 GPU? Yeah, it’s too bad not many games didn’t take advantage of that and still used DX9 instead.
2GB ram it seems since 1GB is mainly for the OS, yeah, yeah. Still not good enough to last it a lengthy lifetime and a very likely scenario will be that this system will once again need watered down multiplatform titles because it is simply too weak to handle the future ones. Just like the Wii.
Feel sorry for the poor suckers getting hyped over this, and inevitably laughed at by wise, real gamers who know very well that Nintendo is only banking on nonsense one-shot then it’s dead right after gimmicks.
ITP: An idiot who takes rumors seriously.
Denialfag in serious denial. Because similar rumors all going hand in hand together are obviously illegit!
All of these fucking rumors with these kind of specs add up. Literally all of them. It’s that way for a reason if you’re too stupid to comprehend it. Just like the Wii, Wii U is having its specs surface near launch and the fanboys are trying to discredit them because they don’t want the truth.
That fanboy is you, the biggest ass-kiss up there with Donzaloog, Unation, TheDragon, and every other retard singing the same tune to justify their late to the game product with no clear goal or audience.
“All of these fucking rumors with these kind of specs add up. ”
Despite the fact that they contradict each other.
But, yeah, they add up because…!
“contradict each other”
If the rumor is sound bullshit like a 7000 series GPU, then yes, they would contradict each other. This however does not contradict frequent rumors and even the dev kit itself.
Like it or not, Wii U is going to be weak shit and probably not even 2x a PS3. Embarrassing.
WTF? have you seen the games being played and shown? you can actually see Mario s face on New super mario bros 2 instead of it being all pixelated cuz of being to small and bad graphics. Think somebody needs to get their head checked. LMFAO! Xbox had 512 ram and you dno the GHZ of the CPU. Talk about don’t know their stuff
And wii has sold just under 100 million and where is xbox. all the way down to 67 million. I call that WANK! LMAO. all consoles are outdated. Xbox looks crap now
Nobody cares about sales.
Consumers care about sales… that’s why they want to buy THEIR products.
Consumers do not care about sales. They care about the quality of games. Get it right.
which is why we play nintendo games instead of Generic Shooter number 1000000
Sales directly reflect the quality of the game…
” Nobody cares about sales”
This motto here is why sega is still in the console biz
Guys you can see Mario’s face, the next generation is here!
lol!
“CPU is like an overclocked Gamecube”
How can you overclock a CPU?
CPUception.
“How can you overclock a CPU”
I really hope that wasn’t a serious question, or you didn’t word that properly. For your sanity I hope so.
yeh i agree Aelous , just like how the 3ds calnt keep up witht the vita right ???
even though resident evil revelations looks like a fucking 3d vita game ??
and the 3ds is shitting on the vita and is now the popular handheld console of choice ??? yep specs mean everything ‘to real gamers’ .
*hit’s capslock* YOU ARE A FUCKING SPASTIC WHO DOES’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT GAMING .
3DS >>>>>>>VITA WIIU >>>>>>POOPS4
the graphics of consoles are becoming less important by the day , due to super high peformance gaming pc’s .
dont’t be suprised if 720 and ps4 are overclocked ps3’s .
Revelations does not look anywhere close to a Vita game.

You retarded fandrone.
You can’t believe what you read on the internet, Asshurtlus… otherwise Satoru Iwata becomes a multi-billionaire. Oops… too late!
TheVirginNation showing how much pussy he will ever get:
As you can see, there is nothing.
Asshurtlus… there’s a butt plug up your ass. If you quit being a fucking graphics whore and respect the company that saved the video game extinction of 1983 (Nintendo), you might be a much better and understandable person. Respect it!
Nobody cares about that anymore.
If it weren’t for Nintendo, you’ll be playing board games for the rest of your already pathetic life.
Get N or Get CANCER, MOTHERFUCKER!!!!
“If it weren’t for Nintendo” Bullshit, like any other same company would have really let the market just fade away. Nintendo was quick to jump on the dead status. That’s all.
But fuck comprehension skills, you’d rather be a sheep.
sane* not same.
I’m a gamer… you’re just a fucking ass clown who needs to get laid and enjoy the sunshine… and a life. End of discussion. Good day sir!
^^^he is getting mad people
Actually, if it wasn’t for Nintendo your xbox 360 wouldn’t be around. Nintendo saved the video game market from crashing down into the ground.
I believe the words “You got pwned” springs to mind.
Dude, your 28, spend hours on a video game blog you don’t like, and sound like the biggest fucking nerd.
Worry about your own (non existent) love life, will ya?
seriously revelations is beautifull and is comparable to a vita game. it is not as good looking , but it is fucking impressive in 3d to be sure .
It is not comparable, by any means. Uncharted wipes the floor with it in visuals, character models and lighting effects.
naaahh . i prefer the character models on revelation’s.
Sure thing, stiff in-game models with no facial animation and a load of retarded lens flare looks far better. What’s funny is every character is basically a reskin of the other when it comes to animation.
Dude Shut the fuck up!! Dummies like you get on my fucking nerves! I play all systems and love em all. But nothing compares to Nintendo. Deal wit that!!
Too bad it’s shit compared to Uncharted 2…
TombRaider pwns Uncharted!
Nah. Tomb Raider hasn’t aged well.
The new one looks good though.
and it still not worth $50 for a 2hr gameplay.
we should keep in mind that the nintendo 3ds basically rendering two images at once to create the 3d effect, basically halves its performance.
if the games didnt all have to be 3d capable, the games would look much better. its still strong hardware. if nintendo ever wanted developers to start developing non 3d games for the 3ds. These games would look good enough in comparison to the vita to make the vita look extremely over priced.
Woah, gimmicky touch controls you hate so much…
wii u will dominate no matter the power the gamepad will replace dual analog and nintendo’s first party will be magical wii u will win the 8th gen by holiday 14
It will not, by any means. Microsoft will outright destroy Nintendo in the next-gen. Microsoft has been steadily creeping up the ladder for the “new guy” in the console market. They want the house of the future and they will gladly pay the $$$ to get it done.
I see the future for Microsoft.. a new video game system where you simply cannot play used games and are not backwards compatible with 360. FUCKING FAILED!!!!!!!
The 720 chips arent even working.
Wii U is having its own production issues… and it doesn’t launch a year in the future. It launches in two months.
^^^^^
OOOOOOHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
Microsoft? Destroy Nintendo? With what exactly? Their Windows 8 based (Shittiest User Interface EVER) next gen console and their Kinect 2.0? I love my 360, but Microsoft needs to really bring the big guns next gen.
Dream. Microdick will never win next gen for fuck’s sake.
Wise, real gamers?? OMG, OMG, you are not serious right now, right? Hiding under the bridge to jump on this topic the second it dropped troll, and you and your buddies are wise, real gamers? Why? Wait, I know. Because you are so unequivocally intelligent that we could never possibly understand your brilliance, and thus are stuck with are deluded delusions of idiocy that a purchase of a new Nintendo system is a terribly horrible decision…thank heavens someone of your mental caliber has come here to save us all from our eventual hideous mistake of purchasing said ‘over/under clocked not even 2x as powerful 3 generation ago ps360wiicast system’. You truly are a savior to the lost, hopeless souls on this forum.
LONG LIVE AEOLUS THE TROLL!
…on a side note, its no wonder society as a whole is literally becoming dumber by the day, what with brain surgeons like you running around trying to tell everyone how their decisions are incomparable to the likes of mental midgets such as yourself…you make me laugh…
Your my hero
You’re*
Butt devastated fanboy who doesn’t like the truth: #15412876
and counting.
Butthurt troll that has no life #1, yay you win!!
Devastated by the truth…what truth? Your truth? ALERT! ALERT! Not only are the trolls holding up the bridges, but they are also holding onto the only shares of truth this side of the bridge in the countryside!
Douche…I will get the Wii U system because 1)I like Nintendo, and I like Nintendo games. 2)I have had 7 Nintendo systems in my life, and you know how many of them broke? 1, and Nintendo replaced it for free, and that was the Wii, and that was because the first two years I had it, it was on nearly 6 hours a day while I was playing with friends, family, friends of the family, and even people I didn’t know who worked for my parents at the time, so understandable. So just on those two merits alone, of which neither Sony nor Microsoft have a leg to stand on, its worth it for me. My buddy had a 360 for like 3 months bragging about how awesome it was, until of course his RROD, which went on to happen 3 more times since he has owned it. I had a Gamecube I left outside in the rain accidentally overnight, and after bringing it in, plugging it in, and letting the fan run for about an hour, the system went on to play for another year and a half before I traded it in. Now thats value and reliability. And lastly, I can choose to own a Wii U at likely about half the cost of the likely next offering from the other two, with amazing graphics, and reliability standards unmatched in my experience, or I can buy the next offerings from the other two, with amazing graphics, sub-par reliability standards, and at twice the cost. Not to mention missing out on Nintendo games. Thanks for your truth douche, but I think I will stick with what I want. You can just keep hoarding your arrogance, ahem, ‘truth’ to yourself.
Oh and everyone here owes you thanks. We do appreciate you holding up the bridge. Keep up the good work, troll.
tl;dr buddy. I don’t read whiny little posts that mean virtually nothing to me.
Probably has something to do with the fact that you read at a third grade level and comprehend about as much as a kindergartner…
No, I just don’t acknowledge pussies.
This coming from a self-absorbed tough guy sitting on the other side of computer screen…Don’t be upset because my intelligence overshadows your arrogance and incompetence…you will go on trolling wherever there is opportunity, because you are a fool who lacks any sort of social intelligence.
“A wise man always has something to say, a fool always has to say something.”
What intelligence? You’re literally whining, you’ve displayed no showing of it whatsoever.
Whining? “Boo-hoo, the Wii is underpowered”, “It can barely do what a ten year old system can do”, “its a pathetic machine for babies and make-believe gamers”….
For all your posts, and especially the ones calling others ‘idiots’, and then following by posting definitions of words, perhaps you should look up ‘whining’, then come back and post that. But, since you are too incompetent to understand the definition anyway, and that you meet the criteria, I won’t bother holding my breath.
You heard it from the man himself.
It’s good you finally came out of the closet…
graphics matter huh? play castlevania on ds (to name jut one great game on an extremeley outdated system). proves you wrong instantly. artwork and gameplay first. always.
1) It’s sad you are still on this site. You’re acting like a 5 year old.
2) Either way I’ll still buy it for it’s exclusives. Plus the game pad intrigues me a little bit. And before you use the same old “rehashed” fanboy insult, I certainly ain’t. I prefer PC if anything followed by Sony.
3) Why can’t you accept people like Nintendo? Is it seriously that hard for you? If they like it who are you to say otherwise? This is a Nintendo news site and of course it will be filled with fanboys. Any retard would know that. Also I’ve played all platforms and they all have their gimmicks. I don’t see why you trolls think it’s just Nintendo.
http://i.qkme.me/367mb9.jpg
Fak, seeing as ibm confirmed a power 7 cpu, power7 as to my knowledge does not use the broadway cores
That’s cute and all if it wasn’t for the fucktons of configurations POWER7 has. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POWER7
And where does it show the configuration for a tri core? Lowest I see is quad, hence supporting the theory
No it doesn’t, because you’re implying the entire chip will be such, when they could very well be implying that features from POWER7 are present. Notably their higher EDRAM.
You know what that’s called? PR talk.
PR Talk, something Sony never does when talking about the PS4, but you keep linking the same article where Sony said ‘hurr ps4 will be far more powerful than wii u we wont make it till it can be like a billion times more powerful’, So, lol nope Hypocrite.
Couldn’t care less for it. I don’t see why so many people barge about the specs being important, for gamers what matters is what the developers can do for us. Knowing about the specs doesn’t add anything to my life.

Dedicated to Aeolus (a.k.a. Amir Stuart), Nessie the Lochness Troll, and Siegfried von Scrotum–
You’re as fat and hideous as the video creator. Wouldn’t be surprised if that is you. Hahaha.
Double standards, Amir. I ain’t as fucking fat as you are. Shut the fuck up… you’re already getting ass raped by everyone here at My NINTENDO News.
ass hurt much bro?
To be honest, I’m going to be taken this with a grain of salt because I can’t see Nintendo making their specs low end and besides, almost every launch game seems to look like a modern PS3/360 games.
I’m just glad to be getting a HD Nintendo console…. Haters gonna hate.
Real gamers game on any fucking platform
TRUE that, Anon!
Excluding Nintendo systems*
Whats wrong with gaming on nintendo and sony?
Nintendo are sell-outs to the casual market. That’s what’s wrong.
Shut up, Meg.
Hes missing out on a lot of great nintendo games. They are some of the best going around.
now this was a fuken funny reply…. you fuken made me laugh hard lol
Yeah with all those angry Birds and crappy mobile games, and the move, wonderbook and that kinnect thing… oh wait
And absolutely none of those peripherals were forced onto you, nor are you forced to buy “crappy mobile games”.
Neither I’m forced to buy crappy casual games and peripherals for owning a Nintendo console, what’s your point?
Actually you are, since the majority of Wii games rely on that rubbish controller, and for the ones that allow you to use others, those are peripherals you have to buy, unless you still have a GC controller.
Gamers should not be forced to have an awkward experience and buy accessories to have a wheel they’re used to.
Sounds like you’re incapable of using a motion plus and therefore denounce anything using it as a crap game.
Your point is invalid, Meg.
You’re fully capable of using that dildo though, I’m sure you enjoy it over your fleshlight as well.
if a game were rubbish period. regardless of whether or not its because of controls. nobody is forced to buy them. There are plenty of good games on the wii either because or despite the controller.
if your argument is that every wii game is rubbish, then your just childish and clearly nothing more than just a troll. If you have a point thats one thing, but with arguments like those you just expose yourself as just a hater.
You WOULD resort to innuendo insults, child. Didn’t expect anything less.
Try again when you’ve got something better to say than relating a motion controller to a sex toy.
But first, try pulling that move controller out of your mouth.
And we’re not forced to pay for online
There’s not a single thing wrong with making casual games.
They’ve brought in a LOT more revenue for the industry as a whole than the core market has in the past few years, and that’s an undeniable fact.
Step down off your high horse before someone with the will to post good evidence of this knocks you off of it.
Casuals are fake gamers, fake gamers are the cancer of this market and only retarded Nintendrones are satisfied with them.
Fake gamers are only concerned with graphics. You sound like the biggest fucking nerd. Playing a video game or the graphics is like watching a movie for the special effects.
fail fool
No, graphics whores are the cancer of this entire generation.
You know what your kind has done?
You’ve set dangerous trends in motion, trends that deny innovation while supporting developer mindsets that want to make games that are sparkly enough to capture the attention of the multitude of brain-dead, shiny-thing-loving raccoons out there in the graphics whore demographic.
I can guaran-FUCKING-tee you that you’ve NEVER bought enough games to support studios the way that Casuals do.
If anyone’s a fake here, it’s you, kid.
Bwahahaha, look at the fake Nintendrone sheep weep.
Shut your vagina mouth up, Meg.
Except asshurt clowns like Aeolus.
