Nintendo Wii U Teardown - PC Perspective 

Wii U's are boring :P haha

Brodsta1202 You never played smash or zelda. Go play cod peasant

yeah i've played zelda but on 3ds xRazorZ

+Brodsta1202 Go back to playing the same game every year, and paying 100-200 dollars more for it.

i do not play the same game every year and i do not pay 100-200 dollars for it... Sam Duff

Yeah I know, I watched a few minutes back when it launched as well. Point is, it's a plastic enclosure with a CD drive and mainboard inside of it. Should take an hour or so to figure out how to open and tear it down without any reference material.

Indeed...they are just trying to make Ninty look silly.

I know im randomly asking but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost my account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me

@Noel Enoch instablaster ;)

@Hugh Jadiel Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Hugh Jadiel It worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my account :D

god nintendo fans are retards... how many times can you play the same mario shit? and ppl say cod is copy paste and theres too many... not to mention the launch title mario game was a rehashed wii game.. god nintendo is sad as hell.. they thought incorporating the wii into the wiiU would sell units... that much is obvious.. they forgot the majority of the audience are old ppl and kids... (they put wiis in retirement homes to encourage movement among the elderly, and its obvious parents buy it for their kids as well, well this time around it aint workin out so well lol)

DjStiv3 well have fun playing your out dated console LOL ps4 can't even handle simple platformers and has the same shooting style games since 1998

xXMasonXx12 how is it dated? the wiiU in teardowns and on the internet has been compared to PC's from 2008 or so. in 2012 ppl said "to 4or 5 yr old pc's" The ps4 is powerful enough to compete easily with $600-700 PC builds.. TODAY. How can ps4 not handle platformers? the fuck? same shooting style? wtf are you talking about? are you being sarcastic?

***** nintendo only fans, yes, yes you are. lol only an idiot points out dumb shit like that on the internet.. trust me dude i got more brains and money that most, i just calls em like i sees em

DjStiv3 The PS4 competes with a $450 to $500 PC, not a $600 to $700 one.

Actually MK8, WWHD, among others are 1080p60fps. Please research properly first.

Abdul Muqeet Khalid I gave 2 examples of games that play 1080p60fps - I know there are plenty more - your first post said only one was 1080p60fps - which wasn't one I posted. your reply to me lacks substance

Graphics card?

Sentient Terran MK8 actually runs at 720p.

Sentient Terran Super Smash Bros. 4 Wii U will also be a 60fps wonder at 1080p. In case Abdul didn't even notice. That's just Nintendo Hater Speak.

Yes

Spencer Tamburello I think its since 1994 the case.

Jeremy Kelley Yeah pretty much. I do not see how that is relevant but sure.

Jeremy Kelley This video just strikes me as really unprofessional.

Jeremy Kelley Whatever dude this is ridiculous

Jeremy Kelley I am usually someone who will argue all day but today no, there is no point.

Doge You bet I do

gunnarsandberg1 smash is 720p... although it looks nearly like a PS4 game so the res doesnt matter

Zyad48 - The Warrior of Evil smash is 1080p. Nintendo said so on the official direct. Digital foundry also stated that in their article.

***** yeah no its not, its 720p upscaled to 1080p so not native 1080p

Yes it is. www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2014-vs-super-smash-bros-wii-u-3ds

***** and they're wrong, even I can see the fucking jaggies from 720p when playing the actual game, and I dont need to look super close to see it either. also look up TheRetroReplay's review of smash 4, even he stated that its 720p with 1080p upscaling applied, I even read that it was confirmed 720p(dont remember the article)

master sonic owo daddy wassupXD

master sonic lol ikr :P wassup,i tink i did that backwards o-o oh well .u.

sonic56749 dosent the wii u suck though compared to ps4 and Xbox one and pc

KingdomCreeper plus yea >~>.....that's true ;~;

+sonic56749 its kicking there ass? why does it have 14 million less sales then the PS4? I'm confused...

+Tony Arsenie you gonna love it

+Tony Arsenie wait for NX

I've seen it it was awesome

+Silvan Aidan 29 ads blocked. :)

What how xD how are there eveb 29 ads on this page.

Silvan Aidan Ad's keep coming and trying to crash my adblock but it does not work.

No, they should not be ashamed for making the Wii U, no freaking console supports RAM upgrade and the Wii U can support more storage.

yes they should, my 400$ gaming pc can run assassians creed 3 1080p 60 fps, but my wii u cannot do the same as for the ram, 1 gb for gaming is very low and cause even the simplest games to lag as for the storage, the white wii u only has 4 gb of usable storage, i bought pikmin 3 digital copy and the moment after i bought it, i ran to wall mart to buy a flash drive so i could play the game i dont hate the wii u, infact itsmy second favorite console(if you count pc as a consol) i enjoy playing mario 3d world, which is a great game, but i am not able to play it cause my gamepad broke which is going to cost me 100$ to fix. that is rediculous, the gamepad is one of the most expensive controllers ever made, its peaks at 150$ if you straight up want to buy a new one from nintendo customer support

Did you buy your PC or build it yourself? Because $400 bucks sounds like a pleb tier PC. The Wii U plays Ass Creed at 1080p 30 something FPS, big whoop, it's a video game console. You really do not know the difference between consoles and computers. Computers need more RAM because the PC runs a lot of OS operations in the background, a console dedicates all it's RAM to the game being played. The reason your Wii U is slowing down is because of your thumb drive, not the RAM of the machine, idiot. I have Pikmin too and it works just fine for me. No crap Corporal! It's a freaking expensive controller, you just have to not break it! As long as it wasn't your fault, then you can just send it back and get a new one because warranty. None of the reasons you stated are legitimate reasons the Wii U is "bad".

i never said it was bad, i love my wii u

Joe Mama Just try to be a little more educated about the things you complain about, okay?

that doesn't matter if your ssd or hdd is that small, its simply unacceptable by today's storage needs.

TheArbiter66 The Wii U play games directly off the disk. The 8/32gb is more for save files than anything else; Which at that size is more than plenty. It doesn't need for large space to install games. If you do need more space for DLC or digital game Wii U support external hard drive.

***** Smoothly?! it loads 10 years xD

***** Xbox One had a new update not too long ago that allow external. As for PS4... You can't, because Sony is too busy being fucken retarded, and that's why the company as a whole still losing money.

***** For its price and power memory matters a lot! I have pay 399 euros for it (zombiu edition for release) and have become a " x box 360" with 32 gb... sorry for my bad english i hope u understand what i mean.

If it was garbage, it wouldn't out perform the Xbone or the PS4.

Ryland Taylor Agree on the Xbone, but the PS4? It's still not in stock everywhere and sold more systems in 5 months than the Wii U did in a YEAR and 5 months!

iansta90 the SYSTEM is garbage. I love the games that are out for it. Top quality as always, but you're only going to get good first party games while third parties ran away shortly after the release of the system.

MARNY The system is very cool and very fun, I don't see what you're thinking.

MARNY If you want 3rd party titles, they have this magical thing called PC. It's better than any console. :)

Wii u has 1080p capability and can put out graphics at least as good as ps3/xbox 360. Sure it's not ps4/xbone graphics but shit, those consoles graphics aren't shit compared to a high end gaming computer. So i guess you could say it has the potential for hd blood splatter :P. If anyone wants to contest that wii u has xbox 360+ graphics please go watch some 1080p gameplay videos of super mario 3d world or black flag xD

Nicolea9000 not at least..by the time developers will work the code like developers work now on ps3/360 it will be 10 times better..

Nicolea9000 Not even close to Xbox 360 capability's.

Greg Hakes yeah its better in every angle you look at it :)

Greg Hakes enjoy your "next-gen" console :)

+Walther Penne this is so old. but I can't help but tell you you have no clue how signal affects speed.

Arms _udg_ 2.4Ghz is slower but has a better reception 5Ghz is faster but worse reception. Honeslty i dont know the science behind the reception.. but my router has also both 5ghz and 2.4ghz. and 2.4 is slower than 5, but 2.4 has a bigger range

I know right

blackvalley007 i watched a guy review sonic 06 for 3 hours, this was easy for me to watch XD
