IGN64's rumor report says that Nintendo is reassuring developers that their
new console will be more powerful than Playstation 2. However, Dolphin will
not be outperforming Sony's machine by much. "'Think Playstation 2 plus a
bit more power,'" IGN64 claims as coming "straight from the horse's mouth."
This flies in the face of a previous story from Nintendojo that reports
Gekko (Dolphin's CPU) "blowing away" Playstation 2's power, but is more in
line with conventional wisdom. The Emotion Engine is packing a lot of
punch, and I'm sure even IBM would have difficulty building an
affordable chip that would significantly outpower the PS2 CPU. I still
eagerly await more specific information (such as polygon count) regarding
Dolphin's chipset. I can pretty much guarantee you that it will not fail
to impress. Read the Full Story at IGN64.
