Arguably it was worse, since we had megatrolls like tjhooker and drohne running amok. Drinky Crow was more active back then too. Still, this is getting pretty ridiculous, and it's likely to continue on this course for another 2 years probably before it starts dying down.
How could it possibly be weaker?
I refuse to believe Nintendo is that pathetic and cheap.
The same source concluded, bluntly: "I suppose you don't need sophisticated physics to make a Mario game."
They like money. The weakest hardware wins, I thought people understood that by now.
If these are true, Nintendo are building another Nintendo box. A box that'll sell cheaply, make all of their franchises look good but be rather useless for 3rd parties.

I said "Never again" after owning a Gamecube, hopefully more people will stop falling for the ruse.
Most people don't follow those megathreads and other may perceive them as being too (insert game company) dominated, meaning discussion may be too one-sided or devolve into circle jerk territory.what the point in a Wii U Speculation Thread if no one use it and start new ones every time good or bad unless it 100% fact true

I feel like this has probably been discussed a million times, but I either haven't seen an answer or have forgotten it. How much would the tablet affect this?
They are currently losing money on the 3DS.I can't see how the Wii-U will be cheap. It has a tablet controller. I see it launching at around the same price as the 360 last gen. Nintendo doesn't lose money on their hardware at launch.
There you go.
There you go.
stay close to the fire, hunker down and pray for daylight.
I agree that it sort of makes me pause too, but I wouldn't be surprised if the same biases/fanboy ravings we see online carried on into people's livelihoods. We're dealing with a very immature industry.
There you go.
All will be forgiven when they show me Smash Bros 4.
There you go.
The ruse?
Oh god hahaIt can't.
It's been explained by several people why devs are getting these results (new hardware, different structure so their middleware doesn't run like it does on 7 year old hardware).
But, that doesn't get hits to your site, does it?
lol u fanboys and your "buying system 4 games"
this fudge-making company.
Oh god haha

Our old QA department was rife with Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft fanboys. It may seem weird to say it, but people who work on games are normal people too and have absolute biases, even against the consoles they make games for. Possibly due to resentment, we all eventually start to hate our jobs after all.

We do not focus on technology specs. We understand that people like to dissect graphics and processing power, but the experience of playing will always be more important than raw numbers.
Thats probably just early dev kit.
There you go.
Some of these people are making me MISS drohne and Drinky Crow. They had their shit down to an art, some of the posting in these threads is just trite, short, headache inducing baiting and trolling. I read a post, I instantly regret wasting time, move on to the next one and repeat. Everyone who is speculating and interacting in a reasoned and worthwhile way goes on mostly ignored. I honestly think it's worse now.
The ruse?
The ruse?
So Gearbox lied last year?
You have it exactly backwards. Many GAFers are ignoring the positive statements from credible sources while clinging to these anonymous rumors because they dislike Nintendo.

Amen to this.
Gearbox 6 hours ago : "it's a really nice bridge to the next generation"
