Why isn't The Witcher 3 on Wii U? It runs at 1080p30fps consistently on my PC and I still don't understand why they couldn't manage (or didn't try) to get it to run on Wii U. My PC's specs: amdx4 3.1ghz, gtx550ti 1gb vram, 16gb ddr3
The wii u isn't much weaker (my pc's cpu doesn't perform much better than wii u's, gpu is roughly twice the power of wii us, and 16gbddr3 isnt exactly a huge advantage in gaming).
The Witcher 3 should have been on Wii U at 720p30fps with good gamepad controls but also support for other controllers.
I've always loved the theories about the secret power of the WiiUCPU when every developer says it's basically overly underpowered shit. All because that one emulator guy said the Wii's CPU could perform faster than one core of the 360's CPU. (When doing a very specific task.) And then that whole thing how it has magical Out of Order Execution. It's still only clocked at 1.2Ghz!
Speaking of clocks, that 550 Ti is nearly clocked twice as fast as the "Latte" GPU. It has a TDP of nearly four times the entire Wii U. And the Wii U has a total of 1GB RAM for games. Total.
Console fanaticism. Not even once.
