Yes, it's middle-low end, but today's middle-low end means the performances of middle-high end a few years ago, and almost surely far better performances than the mid-range 2005-2006 GPUs used by PS3 and XB360. So, decent performaces at a decent price and with just 35W power consumption (according to standard version's data sheet, most probably Ninty uses a customised version), that's quite important for a console, with a far smaller case than a PC. Add a power saving CPU, an optical drive, and all the other components, and WiiU still manages to stay around 75W under full load (although it must be said that Wii is a lot more frugal): that's less than half the power consumption of the first XB360, that gave so many problems, and even 10W less than the current, reliable one.
