That's what the PC is for.

give me the amount of money to built a pc that would run (not to mention the upgrades that you have to make every couple of years) it and i would be happy to use a PC to those type of games

So....500 US dollars? It's not hard to build a nice rig.

So you can build a pc that runs a game matching the samaritan tech demo, in terms of tech, features and graphics for $500... you mind if I ask where you buy components from because they have to be the cheapest store in the world. Bearing in mind ofcourse that Epic specifically optimised that demo, that was ultimately just an in-engine cutscene, to run smoothly on a GTX680 (down from the original demostration that required 3 GTX680's) which by itself is $500 or so. If that is the case then to run an actual game at that level would require far more due to the fact that they wouldn't be able to optimise it for all systems and the interactable enviroments and random actions taken by the player etc...

OT: Simply speaking NIntendo are wrong 'innovation' isn't all that is needed to create great experiences just as great graphics aren't either, ofcourse when I great graphics that doesn't necessarily mean realistic at all, they are both important whilst at the same time just being parts of the overall experience which is unfortunately often overlooked. More power doesn't just mean better graphics capabilities but also improved lighing, improved physics, improved AI, larger game worlds and so on and that is why people desire more powerful hardware. So yes new ways of playing games can be wonderful and even welcomed but that shouldn't be at the detriment of hardware capability. The good news is that whilst the WiiU may not be a trailblazer when it comes to 'power' but it looks to be a noticable increase above the Xbox 360 and PS3 so it should be able to see improvements in all the required areas.

Oh I thought we were talking about good videogame developers. I forgot we were talking about Epic Games.
