Rumor: Wii U processing power exceeds PS3/360 by 50%

Posted on June 13, 2011 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U

A lot has been said about the Wii U. Then again, there’s still a bunch of areas that we know next to nothing about. For instance, Nintendo has neglected to share more in-depth specs for the console, leading industry insiders and fans alike to wonder how it stacks up to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

While nothing hasn’t been confirmed, Sterne Agee analyst Arvind Bhatia claims to have some insight. After speaking with developers at E3, Agee told IndustryGamers that Wii U will exceed the processing power of Microsoft and Sony’s consoles by 50%

“Some of the developers we spoke to indicated to us that the console will have 50% more processing power compared to the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360. This is yet to be confirmed by Nintendo.”
