I just bought Crysis 2 five days ago and was very happy to find out that my two years graphics card (Radeon HD 4890) can handle the game on high settings and true 1080. The Wii U's gpu is supposedly based on a newer, better gpu so I don't share your worries, guys. Also, I'm reading too many things based on speculation and stated as facts in this thread. Paying less? Current generation graphics? Nintendo just teased us. They didn't even mention a price range or specs. And the only two demos were a bird flying around and a Zelda fight scene running in real time with the user changing the lighting and moving the camera. I don't think either of them had too much time put into them. If it only runs in true 1080 then the system is already doing better than current generation consoles. I think some people were just expecting a 12 core processor, 8GB of ram, Either a 580 or 6970 for gpu and more flashy specs. But then if Nintendo delivered that, who knows.... they might be upset about the price, like many were with the PS3. I don't care so much about graphics anymore, it all looks just as good to me now. I'm glad Nintendo is trying to find a way to expand games rather than just with specs. And the ideas looked interesting.
Now... the real question that everyone should be asking themselves: How much is that freaking controller going to cost?
