So yes you are ignoring the APU architecture of the PS3. 
There's no point discussing this if you are only going to look at half the components. 

Plus don't forget the Wii U has two screens to output too. If you know much about multiscreen gaming, the card they are using is going to be very heavily loaded and therefore the main output will be hampered greatly by it. 

The CPU have to deal with the second screen, not the GPU

The CPU (is it an APU?) will mean one of two things :
1)Graphical bottlekneck which is unlikely as it's designed by engineers
2)Little graphical power as no bottlekneck is present. 

It does look like in terms of specs, in order to have a tiny form factor and low(ish) cost, Nintendo have really skimped on power.
