What was nuts exactly ?, even from early WUST's people were saying at most the console would have 2GB's of Ram, a slower than PS360 CPU and maybe a 1TF GPU, as time went on the GPU figure came down to around the 600 GFLOPs range which BG settled on.
The console doesn't look far off what people predicted tbh.
We will see if he was right but no one ever said WiiU was some kind of 10x power leap beast of a console that had a 2TF GPU, 4GB's of Ram and a faster CPU than PS360. We all knew Nintendo don't compete in the tech arms race anymore, nor should they imo.
Make up whatever you want to make yourself feel smug though lol...
Please. The majority of people thought it would be a good leap over current gen. Not 720 PS4 levels, but a noticeable jump. As it stands, Wii U is struggling to keep up with 2005 year hardware.
And don't get me started on the people that thought the Power 7 Watson supercomputer CPU was going to be amazing...
