hmm if the demo we saw was on underclocked systems and that they are receiving new dev kits with more power then what does this mean?

I don't think the actual game will look as good as that demo (talking Zelda). I remember when everyone was amazed by the Killzone 2 demo back in '06 or '07 and the final product was not as good. The demo that did impress me was the one with bird and the rain (can't remember the name). However, that "game" didn't have much going on it, so it was just there to showcase what the WiiU is capable of doing, though I doubt most games will look that good. It's comparable to Flower, a PSN download game where there isn't much going on so as a result the graphics are amazing.

To add to what HappySquirrel said (and this has been discussed on this site several times over the last two weeks), Nintendo's tech demos always look worse than what the platform can really do. Spaceworld Zelda, the old "100 Marios" and "Marionette" demos from the GameCube era, and quite a bit of the early N64 stuff
