I found this on Se7ensins and thought i'd share this here.

As one might expect, with E3 around the corner, new specifications regarding the Wii U are bound to pop up. However, an Ubisoft employee has recently leaked a giant list of information on the console, making the gaming world light up with new news on a next-generation console.Now, at this time, none of this information is known to be absolutely confirmed, but here is the list for your consideration (the source this came from put question marks where things didn’t make sense. I also want to stress that the poor grammar is due to the person leaking the information, not me or from what I can tell the source):

  • There will be pre-intstalled software on Wii-U, just like on 3DS
  • Their developers have lots of versions of the console (???)
  • Wii-U’s line-up is amazing
  • What happened with the 3DS won’t happen again
  • Nintendo asked Ubisoft to release a high number of titles at the launch
  • Ubisoft’s line-up is this:RaymanLegends, Assassin’s Creed 3, Just Dance 4
  • Killer from outer space will be aviable a few weeks after launch
  • Lots of Tech demos will be sent to Ubisoft, just like Zelda’s one of the last E3
  • They showed Ubisoft a lot of new features, some we still have to see
  • Graphic card will be a Radeon HD 6770
  • After Dream he went to eat (???)
  • A lot of Dev-kits were sent to Ubisoft
  • One of them was 4GHz
  • The 6GHz one was from 3 months ago
  • Rayman Legends will come out on Vita as well, just like Rayman Origins
  • Xbox 8′s graphic card will be more powerful than Wii-U’s
  • However, Ubisoft isn’t developing on Microsoft’s new console yet
  • Ass Creed 3 on Wii-U runs at 60 fps, with 1080p, against 360′s and PS3′s 720p
  • This developer decided to leak these information on Mario’s castle because, by going in a more populated forum, he would have risked too much
  • Wii-U’s launch price will 450$
  • After what happened with 3DS’ launch, however, Nintendo decided to lower Wii-U’s price: the final ne hasn’t been confirmed yet, but apparently it will be about 350-400$
  • He doesn’t know much about First Party
  • Crytek, EA and Valve are working on Wii-U
  • He doesn’t know much about Valve, but he heard that they are making something similar to Steam and Portal’s franchise
  • No informations about the online store
  • Assassins Creed 3 will be playable both on PS3 and Vita
  • He didn’t see much about gamertags
  • There will be achievaments
  • He knows something about 3DS and Wii-U interaction, but he didn’t want to say more
  • Wii-U’s interface will be the most customizable interface ever made by Nintendo
  • Rayman Origins’ demo for 3DS wasn’t made by Ubisoft, it was made by another team
  • He decided to leak these informations because he loves Nintendo’s new console
  • At E3 we’ll see something more impressive than these news
  • Wii U has 2GB of RAM, 560MB of that are for the OS
  • supports DX11, they managed to port Unreal Engine 4 on it
  • Less powerful than Xbox 8 (this one I don’t understand)
  • 2 tablet-pads are supported
  • Release Date: 23 November
  • Ubisoft will bringRaymanLegends, ACIII, Rabbids Party, Killer Freaks, The Avengers and Just Dance 4 on it
  • That little button under the D-Pad on the left of the controller is somehow linked to theWiiVitality Sensor
  • No Analog R2/L2 unlike 360 controller/DualShock
As you can see, there is clearly a lot of nonsense in there, but is it possible that some of it is true? Will we finally see achievements? Will it come out this November? Tell me, what do you guys think?

I'm not exactly sure what to think of this. Either way, i'm not getting the WiiU. I got the Wii, but i dont even use it anymore. Only my mum does, and she uses it to play WiiFit and Zumba.
 
Some of it could be true, a lot of it sounds like a lot of rubbish though.

"A lot of Dev-kits were sent to Ubisoft, One of them was 4GHz, The 6GHz one was from 3 months ago"

^^ either has no idea what he's talking about or adding up multiple core processors to get those numbers.
 
its a fake
Salve a tutti, spero che vi ricordiate di me.
Volevo dirvi che in verità non sono quello che ho detto di essere prima. Non sono uno sviluppatore di Ubisoft Milano, anzi, non sono nemmeno uno sviluppatore in verità. Sono solo un ragazzo di 15 anni che ama giocare con i videogiochi. Volevo fare uno scherzo agli utenti di questo forum, ma non volevo che il tutto sarebbe finito in questo modo. Mi scuso con tutti, con gli utenti, con tutti i fan che hanno creduto a quello che ho scritto, ma soprattutto ad Ubisoft a cui mi sono reso conto di aver causato problemi. In un primo momento ho pensato a spacciarmi per uno sviluppatore di Ubisoft perchè è stato il primo nome di una società che ha sede in Italia, in modo da essere creduto da più persone possibile.
Mi sono pentito di aver fatto una cosa del genere, perciò desidero chiedere scusa a tutti nella speranza che possiate perdonarmi per questo errore e spero che la Ubisoft perdoni la mia bravata e giuro che non farò più una cosa simile.

Hello everyone, I hope you remember me.
I wanted to tell you that in truth are not what I said that before. I'm not a developer Ubisoft Milan, indeed, not even a developer in truth. I'm just a 15 year old boy who loves playing video games. I wanted to make a joke to users of this forum, but I did not want it all would end this way. I apologize to all, with users, with all the fans who believed in what I wrote, but above all to Ubisoft that I realized that it caused problems. At first I thought to pass for a developer Ubisoft because it was the first name of a company based in Italy, so as to be believed by many people as possible.
I regret having done such a thing, so I would like to apologize to all in the hope that you will forgive me for this error and hope that Ubisoft will forgive my bravado and I swear I will not do such a thing.

this was his last post on the forum
