Did I miss a train!?
may i have a ticket plz ?
Thought it was over 1gb?
Well he said someone guessed it correctly. The guesses at the time were just 8,4,2, so obviously 2 would be the answer there. He said he thought it would be 1GB but was surprised, so 2 would be what I think he was implying.
La leche, no para de hablar.........
Well, he was excepting 1GB, and he was pleasently surprised by the actual amount.
Oh my. Surprising as in GOOD surprising, or as in BAD surprising?
Also, feel free to edit my face into that image... seeing as I'm late to the hype, just plonk me in the corner trailing behind... *sniff :'(
Or 8.
8 GB is always possible.
where's your hype train ticket?
ALL ABOARD! E3 will kill us this year
I wake up to this?
Straight into the sun indeed
I'm still going with 2GB based on what he said, but if not then 1.5 I imagine is the minimum.
I'm in the 2GB boat as well. I'm just worried about RAM bandwidth using GDDR3. I trust Nintendo will not design a new console with bottlenecks after acknowledging previous errors, but optimizing for that eDRAM will be key. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe the 10mb in the 360 was enough to store a 720p w/ 2xAA frame without tiling. I.E., utilizing the framebuffer will require different techniques than what developers familiar w/ the 360 are used to, but the end result should be noticeably superior.
LOL, yes.
I feel discriminated, why wont you let me on!
Well, the Wii U supposedly has 32MB of eDRAM. Which would be a pretty big boost.
Can i "jump" on the train?
I've heard that number as well. It seems likely enough when looking at IBM's eDRAM. I'm merely saying that it will require some tweaking to fully exploit for 360 ports, which is obvious enough, but is worth repeating. It gives them some room to be flexible too. A talented programmer could also use the framebuffer to store a 1080p image and utilize a software AA technique. We probably won't see the system being mastered like that until much later though. It's always nice to have a system that can still surprise you with its visuals a few years down the line.
LOL, yes.

It gets bigger and bigger, damn :lol
Don't be mad! You are next! EVERYBODY GETS ON THE HYPE TRAIN DUDE
Are they all perma'd? And don't forget BurntPork.Look above the hype train. We are guarded by mighty spirits of fallen brothers.
Where is Gunpei Yokio? He should be next to Mr. Yamauchi?
Can you link me to the IdeaMan post in question? I've tried to find it, but I can't find anything amongst the pages upon pages of Nintendo-Gaf collectively losing their minds. lol
To be more precise, i was quite surprised by the amount of ram expected in the retail version.
I think this message is a bigger hint that the previous one
lol, no, not THAT surprised
My guesstimates were in the 1GB, maybe a bit more, range. And it's more than that, for the moment.
Has anyone got the picture of the Nintendo conference with loads of bears? I love that pic.
Damn, next revision is going to be longer..!

What is going on here?
The hype train for what? GDC?
I want in tooo!!!
Something I've been thinking about, and I know it's far fetched but with the rumored STEAM box and Nintendo saying they are colloborating with partners in new and surprising ways (something along those lines - bear with me), I can't shake the thought of some sort of Steam/Nintendo project.
Does GAF Nintendo Hype Train run on STEAM?
Damn, next revision is going to be longer..!
