Yea, and all but the WiiU CPU seem to be very similar to off-the-shelf products from AMD. There should be some few customizations, but there is no new custom from the ground up designed HW for the next gen consoles anymore, unlike in PS2 or PS3.
I'm not sure what the 3DS is using, but the Vita uses a Tegra 3 with a PowerVR GPU on the same die, which both again are off-the-shelf products, just usually not combined like this.
