I mean, if Sony can give us PS3 level graphics on the PS Vita then why can't Nintendo do better? I'm so sick of this argument from Nintendo's leaders that the game play matters and not graphics because that is nothing but a fallacy. Both the game play and the GRAPHICS MATTER you idiots. I'm 23 years old and I'm not a child anymore. I'm not satisfied with the same old mediocre stuff you fed me as a child. I want something better, something greater and something more than yesterday and the same goes for Apple.

Gameplay > graphics.
Why? Because a fun game that looks like crap can still be enjoyable, a boring game with amazing graphics can't.

Obviously you've never played Donkey Kong Country. And for the record, a game that looks like crap can be utterly unplayable. That's worse than being boring.

Huh? I don't find DKC unplayable. Please explain.

I'm pretty okay.

I thought it was well known about these parts that DKC, despite being well liked, was a game that put graphics over gameplay, and that its graphics were ultimately it's saving grace. To put it simply, it's boring yet looks good enough to keep you going. In other words, you've already been proven wrong. The latter part about being unplayable was unrelated.

I wonder if Nintendo will demonstrate new games for the Wii U at CES 2012? I mean, they didn't REALLY show anything of substance at E3 2011 in terms of software for the Wii U save for that beautiful Legend of Zelda HD game which was later revealed to be a cutscene and not actual game play which is shameful beyond deceptive and not to mention a let down.

Nintendo needs to stop ball dropping at the CES to wait for E3 and actually show software at CES just as Sony does. Sony is going to have new game demos and software previews for both the PS Vita and the PS3. From what I have read the Nintendo 3DS is going to be absent and there is little to no software according to my knowledge for the Wii U at CES 2012 and that literally is disappointing.

Nintendo and Microsoft are both highly foolish to skip and ball drop at the CES in my humble opinion.

I think Intel has really hit the nail on the head with Ultrabook. Ultrabook looks to be a real and truly game changer.

Here is another CES News page. http://ces.joystiq.com/

The demo was not a cutscene. It was in real time. You could change the camera angles and change whether it was at night or day.

Why do people point to their wrists when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is?

So much for going out with a bang. That was rather disappointing. Goodie, we get to watch TV on our Xboxes that are connected to our TVs. Oh, and you control your TV with Kinectm and your Xbox with your Phone. Whoopdie freakin' doo...

Yeah, I can wish my games look better, but they don't have to look good to be fun.

And there are plenty of examples to back up your claim:

Pac-Man
Dig Dug
Galaga
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario 64
Crash Bandicoot PS1 games
Halo 1
Mega Man 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10

All of those games have bad graphics, yet they are still very fun to play.

Ultra Books are already on the market. I was messing around with Asus - Zenbook Ultrabook Laptop at Best Buy the other day. When I decide I'm tired of my Viao, I'll upgrade it to the new Vaio Ultra Book.

I already have Music Unlimited Premium and it's flippin' awesome! Really glad it's coming to Vita.

...and we now know what the power of the PS4 could very likely be strong enough to use Sony's new 4K resolution!

Now both Samsung and LG are more popular than Sony and Panasonic. I guess South Korea is "the new Japan" in terms of electronics innovation. My how times have changed.

By the way, I don't know if it's innovation. I think you mean technology in general. Bigger OLED is screen is great, but innovation is coming up with a new idea, not just bigger/small/better imo. Yes, Korea has Samsung, LG, SK... and don't forget Taiwan and China (ACER, Asus...), Lenovo.

Not only does the 3DS come with an SD card, but it also happens to come pre-installed with one, additional dimension.

Yo get this graphics talk out of my CES thread.

if your going to talk about graphics it better be on topic and about intel's or nividia's conference's.

the future of gaming.

Ha? Tablet is basically a PC, it is supposed to out perform game consoles in terms of hardware. Hardware is not games. The basic model of the iPad launched for $500.

Really love the WP7 phones. I've got a Focus now and am really excited about what's coming out soon and REALLY REALLY excited for stuff that might come out in a year or so.

I was really impressed with the ASUS Tegra 3 Tablet. I was surprised beyond description to see that tablet playing a rich game like Skyrim and I also loved the PhotoShop-esque app which I think was called 'Snap Seed'.

@GundamMac, Donkey Kong Country Returns is indeed a nice game. I really liked it.

So did Microsoft give an exact release date and price for Windows 8?

The Vizio laptops/desktop interest me, but I need to know the specs and prices.

well, it can, the Wii U graphics will be the best. Anyway, the 3DS' graphics are better than the PSP. Resolution is close in 2D (although it depends on the game, they say it's anti aliasing that makes it better in the 3DS), but in 3D it shines and it looks much better. I haven't even seen any Vita game that looked better than RE: Revelations, so that tells me something. Also, vita's resolution is not HD (it's not even 720p, it's qHD, which is below some new phones like galaxy nexus, so it's obviously below the 1080p resolution too).

shingi_70

it tells us that revelations is a 2nd gen 3ds game while all the vita stuff is working on first gen dev kits. that and capcom has worked on two 3ds games and two tech demos (re5 and MML3)

Not really considering the Wii came out in 2006, and this is 2012. What is sad is that the Wii U controller is already looking outdated compared to most tablets, though at least it streams better graphics than most tablets have (unless you count Onlive). The other thing that worries me is the semi-impending releases of PS4 and Nextbox.

shingi_70

ps4 doesn't have me worried as Sony cant afford to go super expensive powerful again. Mircosoft can but with kinext 2.0 on the way i don't think they will.
