All the SD cards in the world won't make the Wii U more capable of handling demanding games.

Bayonetta 2 runs at consistent 60fps. What more do you want? It's not like super high quality graphics matter or anything.

First of all, the game runs at 60fps infrequently

What more do you want?

Second, I want a console that can run modern third party games and can run future games. Which Wii U can't do due to weak hardware. It's not about great graphics, its about being able to run games.

Yeah, because the XBox and PS have so many great games at the moment, which totally aren't ridden with framerate issues and bugs. In any case, if I wanted a machine for playing graphically intense games, I'd be saving to buy/build a gaming PC, not a console. As it is, I'm perfectly happy with my 360 and 2DS.

Yeah, because they do. GTA5, Metal Gear Solid V, Dark Souls II, Destiny, Dragon Age Inquisition, etc., etc.

In this day and age, just about every game is "graphically intense", and obviously not all people want to play on a PC.

graphically intense

-Is for pepole who don't know what real gaming is.Sure,updates every once in a while to graphics prevent it form being medival,but it's its core that counts.FPS games are overrated.Why not boot up that windwaker HD game instead?

@danwar123 It's not just graphics that gets improved with better hardware, you know. Better hardware means that consoles can run more complex games; as you've pointed out, it's about gameplay, not graphics and they can add more gameplay mechanics/general content with better hardware.

Exactly this. People don't seem to get that better hardware doesn't just mean more frames per second and larger resolutions. That's all just GPU upgrades. CPU is also very important. Wii U simply can't run games that have many things going on at the same time like a larger amount of NPCs. Coupled with Nintendo's lack of new IPs,

boot up that windwaker HD game

becomes the only option gamers have.

I would choose PS4 over the other 2, mainly because I had been playing PS games since the dawn of time. I mean since PS1 was released. I'm a loyalist.

The Play Station 4 already has major issues like the Blue-Light of Sadness.

Wii U has games that Xbox One and PS4 will never have and Xbox One and PS4 have games that Wii U will never have. All very good systems.
