Were PS360 too powerful upon release?

Apparently not strong enough for games like Skyrim (well the PS3 version at least).

I thought that had more to do with PS3 being hard to develop for and to port to.

No the PS3's memory was the reason. Developers struggled tto utilize the very silly 256 split the console had. Causing large open worlds  to choke the system. Also making it dificult for PS3 to maintain 60FPS as well as the  360 does.. See Rage, GT5&6 ( yes 6 is still not as stable as Forza 4 )/Forza 4. Or see Skyrim, RDR etc etc. 

Games that require open world gameplay or high framerates faired better on 360 architecture.
