These Wii-U rumors of it being less powerful should be thrown out the window. The thing is already confirmed by numerous actually named developers to have more ram than the 360/PS3. Then IBM said the processor was more powerful than the one the 360 has (not sure compared to the cell) The processor will already have more cache. The thing can handle 720P while streaming to another controller which consoles nowadays can't properly do. Then we go to the graphics card, which if all rumors check out the graphics inside it will be numerous times more powerful than the 360/PS3. Spec wise, I don't see any physically possible way that the 360/PS3 can be more powerful and capable graphically than the Wii U. It just doesn't make sense.
