If specs are that much of a concern, then consider getting a PC. This console is likely going to be affordable. The games at launch/launch window will matter more.
Games > Specs
Nintendo Hardware speculation is the best part of neogaf, let the fuckery commence once again
My console can do certain math operations better than yours.
I don't care about specs, so yes.
lol i nintendo fans flamed the shit out of me, on another forum cause i suggested the console is probably on par with last gen, it was always 4-5x jump in there minds.
because nintendo is too embarrassed to show off the specs.
Do you really have that much free time to go on a flame war about the hardware efficiency of an entertainment tech device we know nothing about?
While this is obviously true, not having comparable specs to Ps4 and XB1 would mean not getting third parties again, but launching a console comparable to ps4 and xb1 so late means doing the same error as the wiiu that initially got some ps360 multis but when the generation ended third party support basically ended too.
But GFLOPs are a terrible way to measure the power of a console.If these capabilities translate into games that are not as barren and limited as the world of Skyward Sword, because the console has actually enough memory and processing power to handle a developer's unbounded creative vision, then they are actually pretty important for those games that everyone only cares about. I do not understand how that can be so easily hand-waved away.
When you buy a nintendo console, you buy it to play nintendo games. Specs wouldn't matter. Nintendo is about style over graphics.

When was the last time anyone cared about the specs of Nintendo hardware?
If you're worried about specs, a PC is the way to go.
It's kind of missing the point to worry about specs on a console.
Yes, unless there is some royal fuck-up (which never happened apart from the Virtual Boy).
This is fucking stupid though. They're not embarrassed, they think specs shouldn't be part of the message.[/QUOTE]
really? it's a electronic device, they all have specs, people should know the specs on a electronic device that costs hundreds of dollars.
