Metro 2033 dev: Wii U has a horrible, slow CPU

:lol:

I'm not buying any multiplatform games on the Wii U, so this wasn't going to affect me either way.

I got the Wii U for exclusives, or at least games that use the tablet creatively.

Just what the wii u needs

Mediocre devs insutling it

multiplats on a nintendo system

Sounds like a pretty sh*tty console.

They should stick almost exclusively to exclusives. That's what Nintendo consoles are for. Experiences you can't get elsewhere.

Next Gen console can't handle last gen games :o:o:o

Can't wait to see how horrible the 360 and PS3 versions are after the disaster 2033 was on the 360. Getting it on anything but PC is just wrong.

Also, 4A only got to see the early dev kits and the Wii-U version was axed because of budget reasons.

They made a mistake with the CPU, just admit it sheep.

Terrible performance and crappy visuals. Thanks to the nature of the 360's video output, the blacks were crushed and it made it even worse. I rented it on the 360 when it came out cause I didn't even know there was a PC version. It nearly made me hate it.

doesn't matter what they say, plus, WiiU is going to rock for its Ninty exclusives, why else buy it?

charizard be cried. :cry:

And this is the so called next gen console?

:lol:

What did you expect all of sudden the Wii U would get 3rd party supportUnless you been living under a rock for a decade then this is to be expected

oh and lol wii u

If I was to play Metro it would be on the PC anyway.

Check and Mate :cool:!

The Wii was cut off from third parties because the GPU was far too ancient to support modern techniques. Required too much rework for an audience that wasn't there. Hell there's been a few posts at NeoGAF/Beyond3D stating that Broadway (Wii's CPU) clock for clock is more efficient than the Xenos in the 360. If the Wii-U uses a tri-core version of it, then it isn't that bad. Then again, we still don't know what the CPU is or what the GPU is, or what they can compare to.

This is also coming from a developer that is known to have terrible optimization.

Looks like I'll be PCWiiU for the next couple years.

Price to performance ratios don't concern present day sheep, all that maters is are the games fun or something along those lines :o And if that's really the case, it always makes me wonder why they just don't stick with the N64 or even the SNES. :P

And yet still out sold everything AND made more profit then any other console...

Wii all over again.Only good for ninty exclusives,so wiiu's are going to be collecting dust waiting for those games.This probably means no gtaV for wiiu.Such a great next gen console.:lol:

Ok... this is really bad.

Long Time Nintendo fans have moved on.

It's a PC game tbh.

But considering they're bothering porting it over to the PS3, I don't see why Wii U would be a problem...

The Wii U is a next gen system with last gen graphics. Cheaptendo needs to make a profit day one. Fizzman

Umm, they're selling the console for a loss, actually.

But please, keep being an ignorant duche...

Because 70 million people own a PS3, while a tiny, tiny fraction of that own a WiiU? Half of whom won't even be aware this game exists, or even care?

Nintendo massive fail for making a console for games from 2006, rather than 2012 plus! Its not future prooof what so ever, and is already outdated now and can bearly run this gen games. Hope Nintendo does know its 2012, and games are getting more complex and demending, right? WII u is going be a distaster for 3rd party just like the wii was. Metro is ment to be played on pc as well.

So the reason why it's not getting the game is more sales-related than tech related?

Got it...

So why don't they complain about PS3's lack of unified shaders or low (split) RAM?

Last time I checked Wii U has a R700-based GPU (DX10.1 effects) and more RAM...

Err, why can't it be both? It doesn't have to be one or the other...

[QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"] The problem is in the thread titleMFDOOM1983

I wouldn't be surprised if the console versions would be a different game tbh...

What to expect when it is an AMD cpu in the poor thing....:lol:

Sounds like a dumb excuse, what were they using? Probably old kits and didn't bother trying the newer kits.
