[QUOTE="PrimevalD123"]You just self-owned yourself there. If it WAS a GC, it wouldn't be out of stock. Because it is NOT a GC, and because many people ARE buying it, it is out of stock. Haha.GundamGuy0

according to miyamoto, it is a gc. link

 

The context of that utterence? Oh he was talking about development, that teh Wii is a Gamecube when it comes to development tools....

they're using gc development tools because the wii is a gc with a new control. you don't use xbox 1 dev tools/kits to make an xbox 360 game and you don't use a ps2 dev kit to make ps3 games. you do however use gc dev tools to make gc games to be played on a gc, or the gc 2 (wii).

You do know the link that you posted is a miss translation what he really said is that the Wii's architecture is based off of the GCN hardware, not that it is basically a GCN all fanboys that hate the Wii always use the mis-quote, instead of the real quote.

Reading comprehension FTL!

I can't believe so many people are bringing this up when they don't even know what it says...
And they said Sheep were grasping for straws... :roll:

what's so hard to understand. read this carefully, "The hardware is basically a GC. We've upgraded our development tools to new versions but, you can still use GC programs as they are. With that in mind, I thought we could remake GC titles for the Wii and modify them to work with the Wii remote so that they're more fun to play."

sounds like you're the one who has reading comprehension issues

Funny how you always stop short of the point of that whole speech. When it comes to development on the Wii, it's like developing on GC hardware. They upgraded their dev tools, but they can still use Gamecube tools to develop on it. I'll do you a favor and buy you a DS and a copy of Brain Training, no need to thank me. An education is a terrible thing not to have :)

*sigh* just read my post above this. by the way, i have a great education, unlike you. don't give up on jhs just yet, one day you'll have a brain that does more than keep your head from caving in.

[QUOTE="darkmanure"]It shouldn't be that hard to produce since its pretty much last generation parts, excluding controller.PSP107

Thats what i'm saying. and again, that mario creator went on record saying the Wii is a GC.

For hevens sake I don't know what is so hard to understand about this.  He was talking about the way the developers will develop for it.  People totally take this out of context.

this pics for you:

 

 

Context! It's fairly clear that the refrence he was talking about was about the ability for the Wii to accept GC programs as it... which basicaly makes it a extended GC. Not that the Wii is literaly physicaly a GC. 

 

It's called a metophor.

GC 2 sure. GC... NO, and the reason xbox 1 dev kits aren't used for the 360 is because the inards are totaly diffrent. Same with PS2, PS3...

 

But having inards that are an extention of the previous gen isn't bad... it never hurt the PC.

i know what you're trying to say by the fact the wii api's are based on and are extensions of the gc api's but that does not make up for the fact that the wii is essentially an upgraded gc. the ibm broadway that is used in the wii is a modified g3 processor, more specifically the 750CL, which in turn is a modified version of the g3 used in the gc, the 750CXe. the only difference between the two is clock speed (and bus speed). to paraphrase Hecker, the wii is two gc's taped together with a new control.

lol, I swear, everything you say to a fanboy/wii-hater goes in one ear and out the other. I guess that's what happens when the empty space in your head allows it to.

the pc is completely different from any home console. pc can be updated whenever the user so wishes. the games for the pc are design with a low speced machine in sight but are not optimized to take advantage of the hardware due to variation from pc to pc. console games are designed with 1 console in mind (if exclusive) and are optimized to take full advantage of the given specs due to there being no variations of said console. ex, a game designed for the xbox 1 can take full advantage of the hardware because no matters home you go to or on what xbox 1 you play, the specs are exactly the same.

1 year= 10.5 million

5 months= 6.5 million

5 months for PS3= 3 million.

Which is selling faster? So which has a harder time to keep up demand? You do realize, the Wii is a succes and the reason it's hard to find is because it's selling out fast.

i never misinterpreted anything. i merely said what miyamoto said, which is the wii is the same as a gc hardware-wise. it doesn't help matters when all that's need to create a wii game is a gc dev kit. this is why til this day, people, including myself, bash the wii for being a gc.

  Because it features backward compatible dev tools? That's a stupid reason to bash it...

 

When was backward compatability bad. Extentions are good... or so I thought.

[QUOTE="PrimevalD123"]You just self-owned yourself there. If it WAS a GC, it wouldn't be out of stock. Because it is NOT a GC, and because many people ARE buying it, it is out of stock. Haha.GundamGuy0

according to miyamoto, it is a gc. link

Reading comprehension FTL!

I can't believe so many people are bringing this up when they don't even know what it says...
And they said Sheep were grasping for straws... :roll:

what's so hard to understand. read this carefully, "The hardware is basically a GC. We've upgraded our development tools to new versions but, you can still use GC programs as they are. With that in mind, I thought we could remake GC titles for the Wii and modify them to work with the Wii remote so that they're more fun to play."

sounds like you're the one who has reading comprehension issues

Funny how you always stop short of the point of that whole speech. When it comes to development on the Wii, it's like developing on GC hardware. They upgraded their dev tools, but they can still use Gamecube tools to develop on it. I'll do you a favor and buy you a DS and a copy of Brain Training, no need to thank me. An education is a terrible thing not to have :)

 

LOL, i dont think he'll know how to turn it on

actually i would know how to turn it on. i would also know how to throw it out the window. that is exactly what i would do with a ds because i am satisfied with my psp and don't need a child's toy (anything nintendo).

lol, I'm gonna use your reading abilities to reply to this... ahem..

"haha, he thinks you have to throw it out the window to turn it on!!"

grow the hell kid. i said i do know how to turn the pos on. i would also throw it out of the window because it's a pos.

Hmm, so now you see how annoying it is when somebody reads something and misinterprets it.

*sigh* still not getting it. let me reiterate. wii games can be developed using a gamecube developers kit. that does not mean it's backwards compatible, that just means it's a gamecube game that can was desgined only to play on the wii. if it were a gamecube game designed to run on a gamecube then it will be backwards compatible. do you understand now? it's not an issue of backwards compatibility, it's the fact a wii game is made on a gc dev unit.

That's just the thing.. the Wii games AREN'T developed on Gamecube kits (excluding Zelda)

look...

""The hardware is basically a GC. We've upgraded our development tools to new versions but, you can still use GC programs as they are. With that in mind, I thought we could remake GC titles for the Wii and modify them to work with the Wii remote so that they're more fun to play."

He says they have new development tools, meaning that they couldn't be done on the Gamecube. You can still use GC programs because he wanted to remake Gamecube titles for the Wii and add wiimote controls. But when we're talking new games, Wii dev kits will be used... THAT is what he is saying.

No see Wii games can be made with either a GC dev kit or the Wii kit which is an extention of the GC kit. The Wii is backward compatable with GC dev tools' but that doesn't mean that they didn't add anything...

Okay, you can make a game for the Wii with the same design techniques used for the GameCube due to the same architecture being used.

That proves the Wii is a GameCube how?

this proves the wii is a gc because you don't design a game for a next-gen console using a last gen dev kits.

TC, you're basically insulting the quality of all gaming systems this generation. By your logic(not mine), the wii is a gamecube. The gamecube did the worst last generation. The wii is doing better than the 360 and ps3(in sales). So last generation's GC(the worst console) is in higher demand than the other two next generation consoles?... im sorry if i confused you, but it really cant get any more simple than that.

If the Wii were a Gamecube I should be able to play my Wii games on it.

Your not using last gen dev kit's your using next gen dev kit's that include everything the last gen had and then extends it with next gen features.

 

Again I don't see how extentions are bad things... Unreal 3 isn't last gen because it's an extention of Unreal 2.

 Are you even reading what they are saying!?

Yes, you can develop a game for the Wii using a Gamecube Dev. kit, but that does not mean that all games for the Wii will use a Gamecube Dev. kit. Most games that are being developed for the Wii from now on will be using Wii Dev. kits. 

 Let me repeat:  Most games that are being developed for the Wii are being built from the ground up with Wii dev. kits. Got it?

 And why did you ignore those specs. posted earlier in the thread? Eh?

 I swear all lemmings and cows are bitter about the Wii's success. They always seem so angry in their Wii hating posts. Did the Wii mug you guys or something?

The Wii console itself is just a beefed up GC console.  It's like taking your PC and upgrading the processor/memory and GPU.  Quite frankly this was a brilliant BRILLIANT move by Nintendo.  This means that all the developers out there don't have to learn a whole host of new tricks to make games on it.  They just carry over what they learned on the GC and then they only have to get used to programming for the Wii Controller.

To say that the Wii is just a GC is just stupid.  Sure the architecture is almost the same, but I would rather have a 3.4ghz CPU in my computer vs. a 2.0 ghz CPU.  The analogy is the same.
