When asked if the game would be coming to Wii U, Rasmus Hoejengaard, Crytek's Director of Creative Development, said there was a "fat chance" of that happening, in an interview he gave to Destructoid.

Nintendo's next console, the Wii U, will run into the same problem its predecessors did. Namely, it will be unable to run popular video games designed for other major gaming consoles by its second or third year of existence, according to people familiar with the capabilities of the late-2012 console.

"After the next generation of machines comes out, Wii U will be a performance orphan," one industry insider who is familiar with the specs of the new Nintendo console, told Kotaku. "It will be closer in performance to the next iPad than the next-gen machines. "

In a recent interview with Digital Spy, Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada opened up about his experience working with Nintendo's latest home console, Wii U. According to Harada, development is "coming along smoother than most people would think, as far as the look of the game." While he finds the system's graphical power on the same par as PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, he noted that the Wii U's CPU is a bit slower than the competition.

"As far as graphical processing and such, it's not much of an issue," he said. "But as far as the CPU goes, the clock is kinda low. I guess they're trying to keep power consumption down so we have to come up with creative ways to get around that and that's taking a little bit of time." When specifically asked if it was slower than the PS3 and 360, he responded "maybe a little bit."

As for the Wii U version of Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Harada asserts progress is "coming along quite rapidly" and isn't far behind the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. And while the world still awaits official word on a Wii U release date, Harada is eager to get the game out "as close as possible" to when the other versions release on September 14.

I don't know why everyone thinks Nintendo is the dumbest company around. They've done pretty well for about 30 years. There is no way they are stupid enough to release a console that still isn't as good as the xbox 360. No chance.

By GPU alone it will be quite a bit more powerful when compared to current consoles.

We still don't know the full specs of the system, either. I'd be interested to know if they used DDR5 memory and I like that the 32GB HD is a solid-state unit.

I thought their flagship third party title was rereleasing Arkham City with a few control tweaks.

We haven't even seen final specs yet. But it is carrying GPU based on the AMD R700 series meaning that it wins, hands down, the GPU comparison.

If you don't think the lack of HD for the Wii qualifies Nintendo for the award for Dumbest Company Around then you are either in serious denial or just a fanboy.

And I don't care how well it sold, it was a scam product with a limited lifespan that ended up buried in everyone's closet within 2 years of its release.
