seriously ??

Wii U - Jack of all trades, master of none.

No HDD, confirmed.

They reveal the CPU but not the rest of the specs? Why?

an HDD is a must, I don't think they'll do this error.
rumors say that's a bit less powerfull than the 360.

A bit less powerful? When it releases, the 360 will be 7 years on the market. Cheap bastards. :x

WRONG. On the floor reports say that the Wii U is much, much stronger than current gen consoles.

This is real time:

Wow no HDD!?!?!?!?

This is better for Nintendo and the consumer. You can buy like 120GB SD cards for like... $55.

Looking good, but lack of HDD is disturbing.

There are certain advantages that come with having an HDD for each console hardware wise. Like faster load times and faster texture loading.

Actually it means unless there's a ton of flash memory DLC will either be very small or non existent as will game updates.

"Storage:The console will have internal flash memory, as well as the option to expand its memory using either an SD memory card or an external USB hard disk drive."

HDD is a must in these damn times.

But it looks so freakin awesome.

When asked about whether Wii U with its hardware capabilities has put Nintendo on equal footing with its competitors, he replied:

Too bad that next gen consoles from Sony and MS are coming soon. Simply being on "par" with this gen isn't enough.

Equal footing as in it's able to compete with them.

Alan could probably argue this with you better.

even if it's better, it'll be slightly. If it was that much better I don't think the specs and stuff wouldv've stay a secret. plus most games showed at the video were ps3/360 footages (, and the one that wern't like the tekken game, it's wasn't impressive at all.

Link to tech demo of crazy detailed faces?

If the GPU is from the R700 family and the Wii U has atleast 1 GB of RAM then yes it will be substantially more powerful than the 360/PS3. Shame that there won't be an HDD...
