Wii U Development Kits Underpowered? [news]

This news doesn't really reveal anything new. Basically underpowered Wii U dev kits are more powerful than the PS3/Xbox360 and that the final specs are still being finalized, but will be even more powerful than PS3/Xbox360 than they already are.

By launch time, we'll actually see how much the Wii U can handle.

Love how Nintendo is trolling all of us with this!

It's a wise move:

1.) Get developers transferring PS360 engines across to Wii U in order to become familiar with the tech and make good use of the controller

2.) Bump up the spec of dev kits later down the line so that there is room for improvement to counter the impending Sony and Microsoft successor systems.

Hopefully Nintendo have done it right and provided us with a console that will greatly compete with the future Xbox and PlayStation. Many of us worried it would only be so powerful at the moment, and behind once the other consoles arrived. Hope they've got it right.
