Does the Wii U playing Watch Dogs say anything about how it would compete against other next gen consoles?

I think he was an idiot.

However a lot of PS4/NextBox games will be running off similar engines used this gen. e.g. EA has a frostbite engine, which was used to play Battlefield 3 and Mass Effect 3 this gen, and it's being used to play Battlefield 4. If PS3/360 can handle it, then so can Wii U, so devs could easily make games work on Wii U for next gen, even if they stop developing for PS3/360.

Also I think the mentality is that if PS3/360 can run it, then so can Wii U. So we know Wii U is more powerful then current gen consoles, even if they jump isn't that big.
