Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn on Wii U? Possibility?

LOL. Is there still someone that thinks he posts "irrefutable facts" about technical specs of consoles nowadays? Must be from neogaf all right.

Err, while people certainly aren't privy to all the technical specs of the various consoles, some (like memory chips) are easily identifiable with a simple tear-down, as they use off-the-shelf components.

Third party ports already run equally or better than on the original platform. That's all we need to know.

TBH, after reading reviews and comparisons of the various titles, it seems to me a more accurate description would be that third party ports runs equally or better, or worse than on the original platform. Which frankly is to be expected, as the qualities of ports always varies depending on developer effort.

Identifying single components gives you very little or no indication on how they'll work together, especially considering that software architecture plays an enormous part in that result.

Not even developers that work on that hardware can tell you with a reasonable amount of safety which console is more powerful than which (in fact different developers give WAY different answers).

The fact that it can work equally or better is all we need to the purpose of this thread.

Of course, but that has little to do what you were bashing him for, if they're using memory chips that tops out at 12.9 gb/s, then that's what those chips will top out at. Now whether that will be a bottleneck or not, only time will tell.


TBH, I don't know why people are so defensive and hostile.. oh wait, this is the internet, nvm.

I never understood hating a console for what it has. Fanboyism is a stupid plague. As someone who owns all consoles, the lot of you are pretty stupid in saying "ps3 is better" or "xbox is better" or even "nintendo is better." They all have something to offer that the other doesn't.
