PS4/Xb3 will be 4-8 times more powerful than the Wii U.

35-40W? My GPU alone uses more than triple that.

The Wii U is efficient more than it is powerful. It has things like a digital signal processor for sound, slow memory (likely) and embedded ram to save power. Your GPU on the other had is made to maximise performance with fast and energy hungry chips.

I've never heard of such a small power consumption though. The PS3 60gb consumed 380W at peak and even the latest slim still consumes 190W.
