By "sloppy" I was referring to the fact that it doesn't seem to leaverage the Wii U's graphical muscle compared to Need for Speed.

One thing we shouldn't forget is that most launch games were probably developed on work-in-progress dev kits, in a really short time and without much man power. Usually there's that one game that really shows the new console is more powerful than current hardware (Mario 64, Rogue Squadron, Soul Calibur, Kameo, etc.) just this time Nintendo decided to go with a non-effort 2D Mario game (which could've looked so much better, really).

Yeah, there hasn't been a single Wii U game so far that's been built from the ground up by a technically proficient team to be graphically intensive.

Once there is, we'll have a better idea of what the system can do.

Look at the latest Pikmin 3 video, that will be the first game to show the power of the console.

What about Pikmin 3 makes it a graphical showcase? I mean, it's a pretty game, with some very attractive character shaders and a nicely vibrant art style, but it doesn't leap out at me as being more technically advanced than Need for Speed or Trine 2, or Halo 4 / Uncharted 3.
