If specs didn't matter why would we be getting new consoles? I don't really understand people dismissing the importance of a console's power.
Of course it matters, and Nintendo should be as transparent as possible. It doesn't need to be a powerhouse but I don't think we want to be in a Wii U-like situation again. Moving the tech forward is nice.
Post Gamecube who cares about the specs in a Nintendo system?
Maybe they won't make exclusives but multis and ports yes imo.
Oh my god, ninjablade, you went too far this time
Nintendo never "hid" the specs of Wii U, it was all baseless speculation and theories, early dev. kits, rumors, etc. before releasing you knew what was inside the machine, or at least enough to get an idea. they could never hide that.
You got Nintendo games on HD, with many agreeing they look quite nice. regardless of the very modest specs.
The only thing is that they should avoid the bullshit like Reggie saying CoD looked much better on Wii U. and be overall more clear on that aspect, wich im guessing they will be given the circunstances.
Bu im not sure what you mean, they were somewhat clear on 3DS also.
I don't care as long as i can play Nintendo games.
And i agree the next system should offer more competitive specs. better tech, etc. than was offered before, but thats not only because it opens the door to some third party support that Nintendo needs, but also a smart and neccessary business decision. there is no other way.
that said we could agree Nintendo made the jump to HD very well with Wii U, regardless of their limited tech. have you seen Xenoblade X?
EDIT: Most of all easier for devs to get their teeth into.
you had many people here, including tech heads guessing it was a 2-4x jump from 360, even after it came out, they blamed the lazy devs for not taking advantage of wiiu secret hidden powers in multuplatform games
yea i saw X, and honestly anybody who knows a little about graphics, can tell those graphics look last gen.

I will buy it if they dont hide new Metroids and 3d marios from it.
