Re: FW: Nintendo Taps POWER for new Wii U

[Scott Klement <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

FWIW, the old Wii also used POWER, as did it's predecessor, the GameCube.

Furthermore, XBox used POWER, and XBox 360's Xenon CPU is heavily based 
on POWER.  Sony Playstation 3 using a "Cell" microprocessor, which is 
also based on POWER.

Content producers need to enable dual stack, but we don't know what impact this will have. The big players are going to induce this deliberately on World IPv6 Day to see what happens.
