닌텐도 WiiU 스펙 유출! 초 고성능 게임기 탄생을 예고?!

최근 한 매체에서 wiiu 스펙이 노출되었다고 합니다.

미국의 다양한 매체에서 나오고 있는 정보니 상당히 신뢰성이 높습니다.

특징이라면 PowerPC 아키텍처 CPU를 사용한다는 것과

AMD의 그래픽 프로세서를 사용한다는 것이네요.

이로서 닌텐도는 게임큐브부터 시작해서 PowerPC 아키텍처를 3기종 연속으로 사용합니다.

그래픽도 계속 ATI (AMD)를 사용했기에 호환성은 문제 없어보입니다.

Compute shader support

GX2 is a 3D graphics API for the Nintendo Wii U system (also known as Cafe). The API is designed to be as efficient as GX(1) from the Nintendo GameCube and Wii systems. Current features are modeled after OpenGL and the AMD r7xx series of graphics processors. Wii U’s graphics processor is referred to as GPU7.
Sound and Audio

Dedicated 120MHz audio DSP.
Support for 6 channel discrete uncompressed audio (via HDMI).
2 channel audio for the Cafe DRC controller.
Monaural audio for the Cafe Remote controller.

Networking

802.11 b/g/n Wifi.

Peripherals

2 x USB 2.0 host controllers x 2 ports each.
SDCard Slot.

Built-in Storage

512MB SLC NAND for System.
8GB MLC NAND for Applications.

Host PC Bridge

Dedicated Cafe-to-host PC bridge hardware.
Allows File System emulation by host PC.
Provides interface for debugger and logging to host PC.

무선 화면전송기술은 독자기술을 쓴듯하지만 intel의 WiDi를 이용하는것 같구요.

그래픽은 AMD의 라데온 6700급의 그래픽이라고 하니 기대해도 좋을 것 같습니다.

닌텐도 위유의 스펙 유출로 더욱 더 정보가 확실해져 가는 것 같습니다.

빨리 정발되서 깔끔한 그래픽으로 게임을 즐기는 그날이 오면 좋겠네요!
