One thing should be obvious by now - Wii U has some modern architecture that requires proper usage - simple porting is not easy and rewarding due to lacks in CPU.
Still, no matter how much power there actually is, Nintendo is perfect at pushing their realtively weak machines to the limit.
Remember Super Mario Galaxy 2? Donkey Kong on SNES? Golden Sun on both GBA and DS? Metroid on Wii?
The best looking title so far (SM3dW to me) is almost like a launch title. I cant wait to see what they will bring in 3-4 years.
I'd say that those slightly above ps360 specs are more than needed in Nintendo's eyes. I'd say to them it's on par with ps4 (although it certainly isn't.)
I mean, how many times have we heard 3rd party devs quacking about not enough power?
