To be fair, is Nintendo Land a game that really needed to be displayed in 1080p? Or at all, for that matter?

I would say so, if it's going to be the game most used by the most users most of the time.

A) Really, will it be?
B) Even if it was, the audience that would flock to the game would not be the same crowd that focuses on the resolution the system is putting out.
Just for that, I might not even consider getting a Wii U because some Wii U titles need to run at 1080p though the maximum resolution for the Wii U is 720p because of hardware issues. And speaking of hardware issues, I might consider the Wii U "not so next gen" because the hardware is not so good if you compare the Wii U to the PS4/orbis or Xbox 720/Durango.

You mean 2 consoles that we know literally nothing about aside from rumors? That's a bit silly thing to say at this point.

PS Orbis will probably be announced day 20.
The info about development kits are almost the same everywhere.

If you expect WiiU to be as strong as PS Orbis and Durango you're gonna have a bad time.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
