Valve: Wii U appears to be more powerful than last gen, fits into our scalability

Valve’s Gabe Newell seems to be on board with Wii U, saying that it “seems to be a lot more powerful than the previous generation.” The company has been around for more than a decade, but has never created a title for a Nintendo platform. Might that change with Wii U?

Newell told Joystiq:

“Wii U seems to be a lot more powerful than the previous generation. It sort of fits better into the scalability in terms of graphics performance and CPU performance, so I think it’ll be a lot easier for us to fit it into our scalability model. We’ve always loved Nintendo. Now it’s a lot easier to look at Wii U and have it fit within that framework.”
