Seems the Wii U version is the best looking(not running) version on the consoles. Not "dramatically" but yeah.I thought COD looking better on the Wii U versus the ps3 was true.
360 is on par.

Poor Nintendo has to resort to lying.
A buddy of mine was over last night who mainly plays the 360 version and he said the Wii version looked smoother and said he didn't see the screen tearing.
Yeah his job, especially for a company that needs casuals so much like Nintendo, is to say and do whatever is necessary to get as many sales as possible. And we all know casuals have shit for brains when it comes to gaming. I guarantee you the ones who saw that interview believed him. Just like they believe COD is a HD game.
I just love how he used the word "dramatically." It must be true then
And Wolf Blitzer is the most interesting man in the world.
Since someone said there should be a thread about this interview - here you go.
Reggie talked about the WiiU including some stuff about the competition and how it's different to the Wii.
Wouldn't have expected some of the questions from CNN.

Reggie on CNN: "3rd-party games like CoD look dramatically better on our system"
Maybe he meant compared to their prior system?
He could've got away easily by saying something like "it uses more modern and advanced graphics technology" as it is actually true.Yeah his job, especially for a company that needs casuals so much like Nintendo, is to say and do whatever is necessary to get as many sales as possible.

Yeah it's like he took a page from your book
Was Reggie's source BGAssassin?
BG: "Trust me Reggie, it runs at 1080p 60FPS!"
Reggie: "Well, BG, I've looked at the specs the Japan office set and I don't really..."
BG: "Reggie!"
Reggie: *Looks sheepishly towards BG*
BG: "eDRAM, GPGPU"
Reggie: "Cool!"

Do third party games not look better on Wii U than on Wii? Is this an untrue statement? I haven't seen the interview, but does Reggie ever say that the games look better on Wii U versus XBox 360/PS3 specifically? Because if not, this is just one of those unfortunate things that is technically true but incredibly misleading (like most things Reggie says).
He can say it there, because there is no one knowledgeable enough to argue with him.
If he would've said something like this to someone like Keighly he would've been destroyed [again].
I invented lies, as you may well know. Just like you invented crying into your Mario plushie.

dramatically great comeback
It's fine. BG has been the playing the tune we've all danced on for quite some time now. He he.Dude, what's with the attacks on BG? Seriously one of GAF's nicest guys who never claimed to be an insider, was mostly down to earth with his predictions, and made it clear that they were only predictions.

10/10 in "telling bullshit while technically not lying" category
Disgusting lie. But most moms and kids aren't going to fact check when they buy the thing. All they'll see is "oooh purty colors"

How's it technically not a lie?
Calling on Nintendo Defence Force nao! Protect yar honour, protect the best interest of Nintendo! Tell them the CPU is challenging and not slow, tell these heathens that CoD looks "dramatically better" than PS3 360 version and that people are too blind to see it etc etc.

When brainless dummies aren't going to bother doing any research or fact check his ass then you can get away with blatantly lying like that. It's also why republicans are still so popular in this country.
People believe what they want to believe. If they want to think it looks dramatically better, it will, it's a new shiny thing after all. Just look at the post in this thread where a regular 360 CoD player thought the U version looked "smoother".Honestly though, he probably shouldn't have used Call of Duty for the example. I mean it's possible to trick people into thinking the Wii U version is "slightly" better looking if you're not educated, placebo effect and all that, but dramatically better? The casuals know Call of Duty more than any other franchise. They'll probably be a little annoyed if they pick up a Wii U and it looks "the same" (even worse, really!)
Because dramatically is a subjective category.

Except he is, you know, straight up lying to the interviewer's face.10/10 in "telling bullshit while technically not lying" category
Even if we agree on that, given that it doesn't look better at all (not even a tiny bit) than the 360 version that would still be a lie.Because dramatically is a subjective category.
