Unity CEO says DirectX 11 equivalent functionality 'potentially possible' on Wii

Wii-U's GPGPU Squashes Xbox 360, PS3; Capable of Direct X 11 Equivalent Graphics

Well there have been tons of rumors coming around, but its nice to know Wii-U will be able to use the latest and greatest stuff right now. So far the Wii-U is impressing me, I think Wii-U may be more powerful then we think. I guess time will tell, but its nice to know the Wii-U can do DX 11 equivalent graphics.

To put things into perspective, it's "potentially possible" for me to get a bj from Kim Kardashian later this week, while my Looper from 2025 watches and gives Jessica Alba backshots. Potentially possible yet roughly a 0.000000000009% chance of happening. We should keep this in mind whenever someone says a phrase like "potentially possible"

Read the article, by potentially possible he means that the Wii-U is capable of that, he's says potentially possible because he's not sure if developers will choose to use it I think.

To put it in better words, Wii-U supports similar to OpenGL 4.0,

It should be able to run a game like crysis at very-high if its 720p & 30fps. It'd even surpass that if optimized.

a) Sticky b) Why are there so many conflicting reports?
