Sumo Pleasantly “Surprised” by Wii U Specs
Sumo’s Steve Lycett has been speaking about the Wii U again, this time nothing has been taken out of context…

“There are always surprises and unexpected challenges when you develop on a new console. When we first got our hands on the kit, the first surprise was the capability of the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit). We’d been worried that we might need to re-engineer all the effects and shaders in the game, but they worked just fine.”
“The Wii U looks as good as any of the HD platforms. The Wii U has way more memory, so we can take advantage of that with less compression on elements and textures, so it will look all lovely and shiny.”

in other news, this means the wii u has more ram than current consoles. should any new console have less ram than a current one, i ask you? i think it’s sillys to state what should be expected in a new console and present it as if it’s a surprise.
