Loading times seem to be more bearable on Wii U

The WiiU's Discs aren't blu-ray. They're just WiiU proprietary discs and they have a read speed of 22.5MB/s. PS3's blu-rays are 9MB/s. Xbox360 varies from 7-15MB/s depending on number of layers and disc drive. Fast load times are to be expected with Nintendo consoles. That's one thing they've always tried to keep down.
