I'm still very cautious about that alleged spec bump. I believe I was the first to mention the improved late 2011 kits on B3D and GAF, but that story immediately developed a life of its own and got blown way out of proportion. I wrote that there were a few improvements and that it exceeds some initial targets, yet many people took that as a massive spec bump and reported it as such. I personally don't know how substantial the improvements were, but I really, really hope the sites mentioning it now aren't just riding that wave.

So you are the source of spec bumps? It went from 1.5-2x PS360 to 5x of them. I honestly don't know how they bumped specs that much, seems fishy.I'm still very cautious about that alleged spec bump.

What's the chance that the white Wii U controller is going to turn yellow like my white Wii remote and my DS lite?

Erm, do you sweat a lot? Or keep the controllers exposed to sunlight a lot? Because both my remotes and DS are fine after years of constant use...
I have a hardcore cleanliness OCD with my electronics, so trust me my hands are clean. Nintendo's white products just hate me....
Wash your hands, man...

My hands would be painfully dry if I washed them any more than I do. Maybe it's just my hand's natural oils or something?
Yeah, I've had mine since launch, still white as the day I bought them... and I have mariokart players that actually like using just the wiimote.
Dunno.
My launch Wiimote and even my launch Arctic White GBA are both the same color as when I got them.
I didn't even know there was a yellowing problem.

EDIT: It's only really the analog stick (nunchuk), d-pad (Wii remote), and shoulder buttons (DS lite) that change colour for some reason, the rest of the plastic remains the same. Maybe it's due to the material used?

Green substances just so no one thinks I'm talking about anything rocky.
I live by a wise creed "Don't smoke rocks."
The lab around here has great combustibles.Well sure.
Have you ever tried to set a rock on fire?
Nearly impossible.
The real killer will be if you can use it for web browsing, Netflix, Skype, etc. They could make it an iPad killer.
If it doesnt have wifi, and cannot do absolutely everything my tablet can do, this aint gonna happen. Just saying, there are some minor overlap in the two industries, but they arent THAT large. Im not going to be replacing my tablet with a WiiU pad, and the same applies vice versa.

Um what? Maybe a Kindle Fire killer but iPad is far more than a media device. It has advanced contention creation software for photo editing, movie editing, document creation, etc. It's a computer.
Anyone seen this from Nintendo Enthusiast?
An industry exclusive look into the Wii U from an insider, apparently.
Take with the usual pinch of salt, but the Wii U can run UE 3.9 - and the developers that were disappointed didn't have the latest kits.....

As this thread moves quicker than light speed, this has *probably* been posted. However, I'll post it in case it *hasn't*.
Nothing terribly new but well here you go:
From a recent GamesRadar interview with Super Mario 3D Land director Koichi Hayashida.

I believe "3.9" is a description made by journalists and enthusiasts. Epic Games just describes it as Unreal Engine 3 takes game engine graphics to the next level with Samaritan". Though I could be wrong.Isn't 3.9 just the nickname epic gave for samaritian demo?
So I didn't have internet for two days - anything important/exciting I missed ?

At the end of the day, though, this isnt Unreal 4. Its still definitely Unreal 3, Rein was quick to clarify. He added, however, that if this were to be given a number, itd be Unreal 3.975. He also noted that this is a bigger leap than the one between Unreal 2 and Unreal 3 and it shows. On top of that, its versatile as all get-out.

I bet the Nintendo Enthusiast guy interviewed himself with answers from this thread :lol
http://www.ign.com/boards/threads/a...look-into-the-wii-u.250088032/#post-251371273
The guy who did that NintendoEthusiast thread is a regular poster on the Wii IGN board. His name is Menashe and he's original poster of that thread.
If anyone is an IGN poster, here's your chance to grill him in that thread with questions to find out how credible that interview is.
I wouldn't doubt it. Hell, didn't a few websites quote ideaman on the RAM?
