Re: Next-Gen Advances
Yeah, I keep hearing Nintendo's new chipset (codenamed Starfall) is supposedly equal or 1.5 times more powerful than Sony's CELL. While it's only speculation, we have to remember that every speculation made in the past about Nintendo's consoles has ended up being true, if not truer.

Re: Next-Gen Advances
I heard that it's actually going to be a 16 bit console, to relive the glory days.

Re: Next-Gen Advances
Um, I didn't think that all the consoles from this gen were 128 bit. Haven't we been over this before, that bits have very little to do with the power of the console anymore? I think GameInformer may be a little mis-informed.

Re: Next-Gen Advances
Nintendo might need some extra power to get those 3D images done, together with the gyros.

Give this man a cookie.
PS2 is 128-bit.
Gamecube is 64-bit.
Xbox is 32-bit.
Bits mean ****.
Countered isn't the right word here. The right word here is.. Debunked! |

Are you telling the truth about this? I've never heard anything about STARFALL from Nintendo or any leaked rumors.

I've read about it at a few forums and in an online magazine for whatever that's worth. Maybe nothing.  |
