… a developer from Telltale Games just this week said the iPhone was more powerful than the much larger and more expensive game system (Nintendo Wii) both because of genuinely speedier components but also because of arbitrary limits imposed by Nintendo on downloadable Wii games. He speculated that the company’s latest adventure game series, Tales of Monkey Island, might actually look better and run faster on Apple’s cellphone…
“The voices and textures [in Tales] are the way they are because we’re limited to 40 megs for WiiWare titles,” he said. “Frame rate issues will probably get sorted out eventually, but keep in mind that the Wii is just not a powerful console. An iPhone is much more powerful than a Wii, even.”
