Nintendo's Miyamoto Addresses Wii U Price, Power, iPad Similarities

Game Advertising Online
Veteran Nintendo designer and EAD general manager Shigeru Miyamoto says the recently announced Wii U may not "necessarily dramatically outperform the systems that are out now," partially out of deference to price concerns.

In an interview with GameSpot, Miyamoto said including the new touchscreen controller with the system "maybe to a certain degree somewhat reckless" from a cost standpoint, and that the company is trying hard to find the right balance between advanced technology and family-friendly pricing.

"We're very sensitive to pricing because people have generally only a certain amount of their spending that they'll devote to entertainment," Miyamoto said. "And if you're talking about parents buying something for kids, there are certain price points where parents may be willing to or not willing to purchase a certain product."

"But at the same time, you have these technological advances, and you have the needs of being able to take advantage of that technology, and those result in increasing costs and things like that," he continued.

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata told Nikkei this month that the Wii U would likely cost more than the Wii's price of ¥20,000 ($250).

Iwata has also said he hopes that the system's HD graphics will help attract third-party first-person shooters to the system.

Miyamoto used the GameSpot interview to reject the idea that the Wii U's touchscreen controller was somehow inspired by the success of Apple's iPad, saying the company had worked on the concept for "several years" before Apple's tablet computer launched.

"We felt it was kind of a funny coincidence that, while we had been working on this, all of a sudden right as we're getting ready to bring it to the public, there's this tablet boom," he said.

"On the one hand we felt that if we were to show it off at E3 last year, then people would look at it and say, 'Oh, it's like a tablet.' But on the other hand, it may have actually helped us because it made it easier for people to understand the concept."

Elsewhere in the interview, Miyamoto refused to rule out the future availability of Virtual Boy titles on the 3DS' digital eShop, but said the idea was "not my exact plan."


小贴士

ps2和360差5年半

wiiu和360差6年多

so？

这是新闻，不是社论
不过有机能弱于xbox的wii在前
可能说是dejavu比较合适

xbox机能就大大高于ps2
脸是爹妈给的

那就太惨了，4870比360竟然如此不济？

经过这几年，我觉得没什么人会认为WIIU可以大大高于360和PS3，这帖作为线索其实没什么意义

4870在发言人嘴里绝对可以大大超过360
所以这贴还是有新线索的，就是4870是没戏了

你摸过4870或者同档次的显卡吗？
没摸过就去电脑城求老板给你摸一摸
就知道PeeU那个体积放不放得下

原来预测是4870级别的人都是没摸过4870档次显卡的啊
看起来是失态了

以现在的32nm工艺，真想放同档次的GPU还是放得下的

所以这新闻还是有意义的

硬件专家西川善司透露的，此人可信度基本和日经一个水准，八九不离十了。

文中主要提到从AMD关系人士得到消息，确认用的是4000系GPU，支持DX10.1与SM4.1。
另外从其他渠道得知这块GPU的浮点演算性能超过1T，也就是约相当于4800系列的水准。1T大概是个什么概念呢，目前市面上的AMD单芯卡皇6970是3T不到，同样使用ATI显卡的360的参数是约0.24T。

此外文中还提到一个有趣的信息，这块定制的GPU有两种输出模式，一种是现在公开的主机高清画面+手柄标清画面，还有一种则是除了主机高清画面，还可同时输出4组标清画面。

在这里

难怪这人被huya追着咬
恼羞成怒啊

我记得a卡以前就有曲面细分（Tessellation），只不过和dx11标准的不是完全一样

这是纠正他常识错误的帖

另外，对开帖的版主和任区的各位说声抱歉，破坏了讨论的气氛  
对于某人，我认为这种人不应该让其进入任区  这种人只会破坏任区  恶心他人

我想信同我一样想法的不在少数

然后就是这贴，在huya的技术贴中骂街超过20贴，huya无动于衷谈笑风生帮他cover，但他因为四处乱咬被其他区管理员看后从轻处罚，接下去我就惨了

当然有一个很显著的特点，就是这些人在任区骂人永远是不会被任区版主处罚的，似乎有点像共生的关系
