The Wii U's power is being held back somewhat since they are playing ports from last gen consoles (sure feels odd to refer to Sony and MS's consoles as last gen..). Since developers are generally going for a straight port over to the console to avoid the extra work of remaking everything to take advantage of the new hardware, the game obviously is going to look like the last gen console versions.
I am reminded of early Xbox 360 ports like Gun, where it looked very similar to a Gamecube/Xbox game, and people were referring to it as "Xbox 1.5." Fast forward to now, look at games like Gears 3. The difference is night and day. I think we'll be seeing a similar progression in graphics with Wii U once developers get the hang of the hardware, and actually make some ground up Wii U games.
