Wii U is an efficency wonder which needs just half the power the 360 needs for similar results. I think that Nintendo designed the Wii U with that in mind. A cool/quiet/small/durable/energy saving version of the 360 with room to surpass it (but not by much). |
Hmmm I don't think the difference is even that big after the slim versions

Unfortunately no one did such a test on the Wii U with a more technically advanced game.
