Is there any confirmation of that quote?

if the tech isn't being used to bruteforce graphics it probably doesn't matter in the first placeRaide said:Jumping in first could either be a great starter for Nintendo or a great opportunity for rivals to out-tech them shortly after.

Escapist Magazine? I can't find this on their site at all (in their news section anyway)...anyone got a link?
Heh, If it's sub-screen related, that might not be a choice we get to make this time around.Jinfash said:What's pretty frustrating is that rumor is encouraging me to turn off the "main feature" even before it is revealed.

AceBandage said:Out teching them could very well lead to a PS3 situation, though. In which, you have two overpriced systems and Nintendo just does a price drop and destroys them.
We shall see, though.
I'm just pointing out that the question is still, ultimately, what's better for gaming? A full generational leap in graphics/performance, or some new Nintendo laboratory experiment? Or more to the point, which one will consumers care more about? And by extension, which one will developers care more about?Plinko said:Well, duh. Why wouldn't they? The new MS and Sony consoles won't hit until late 2012 or 2013 and Nintendo isn't the type of company to throw out a $600 system.
That french site, but I'm just quoting.TheFatOne said:Source?

Depends if they've put a Blu Ray player in it. HD DVD might be nice, buy some cheap old pressing shit from Toshiba.FunkyPajamas said:The main feature is playing games.
Cosmonaut X said:Another interesting point - specs sheets given out back in 2010, so potentially (assuming the 2012 launch point is correct) ~2 years from third parties becoming aware of Nintendo's plans etc. to launch.
devs should have learned to code Wii games if they wanted to make awesome-looking stuffRaide said:It does seem that the Wii 2 stuff is all built around Developers and their desire to make awesome looking stuff on a Nintendo console. Classically Nintendo don't bruteforce graphics but, if these rumours are all true, they certainly seem like they are pushing it now.
That´s unlikely.beje said:It probably has already been said after 11k+ replies but according to the last piece ofbullshitspeculation... autostereoscopic 3D 6" screen?
consumers will care more about the one that gets them the games they want. not being on the strongest system wasn't an issue when stuff like dmc3 and shadow of the colossus hit.Or more to the point, which one will consumers care more about? And by extension, which one will developers care more about?

It's more the lack of any links showing where that quote came from.

yep its the info Jeuxfrance basically talked about.Sammy Samusu said:UPDATE: Dernière information, toujours de 01net, la conférence Nintendo de cet E3 permettra surtout de voir des démos techniques et quelques jeux encore peu avancés.

Something something tech demos.
And this lines up with something that was said earlier about developers having had kits for months, and "2 years" was thrown about a little, so perhaps the implication of that was 2 years of having the kits by launch? That would match up with late 2012, but then we've had reports indicating early 2012 and June 2012 as well, though June 2012 is odd so I'm inclined to ignore that bit.Cosmonaut X said:Another interesting point - specs sheets given out back in 2010, so potentially (assuming the 2012 launch point is correct) ~2 years from third parties becoming aware of Nintendo's plans etc. to launch.

Sorry guys, I'm stupid
Opus Angelorum said:It's interesting.
If someone were to show me a Wii game alongside Crysis running full whack on a PC, I'd certainly not say it was only half a generation ahead.
It has to render only once, but the stream needs to be compressed in real time, with minimal latency. Quite demanding.AceBandage said:Constant Data streaming to another device would certainly eat up processing power.
I mean, the machine has to render two different displays for two different devices.
