Ubisoft: Wii-U gamepad latency is crazy low!

Rayman creator Michel Ancel has high praise for the Wii U – in particular, the console’s main controller.

Ancel has been very impressed with the technology behind the GamePad. Not only does it offer “crazy” response time, but Ancel also says that it responds well thanks to very low latency – which comes in at only 1/60 of a second.

Below are Ancel’s thoughts about the GamePad in full, which he provided while speaking with Nintendo Power this month:

“And I think this is where Nintendo is really out in front of things. The technology inside the controller is quite a bit more advanced than what people might think. It’s really responsive. The response time is crazy, in fact, and I think the competitors will need some time to [get their solutions] this responsive.

“It’s crazy because the game is running in full HD [on the television], we are streaming another picture on the GamePad screen, and it’s still 60 frames per second. And the latency on the controller is just 1/60 of a second, so it’s one frame late. It’s crazy, it’s so fast. It’s almost instant. That’s why it responds so well. So it can be used as a real game-design thing.”
