 Its clear as day now, that no game on the WiiU will show that its objectivly far more powerfull than the 360 or PS3, just like the Wii never prooved that is is more powerfull than an Xbox.

The Wii showed it as more powerful than the Xbox wth Mario Galaxy, ett Rocket, and Modern Warfare 3.

And the idea that the Wii U is maxed out within five months of its release is ludicrous, anyone who thinks so clearly knows very little about game development.

To paraphrase what a fellow mod and developer once said to me:

Even the earliest game max out a console. There is no untapped power left, the game already uses everything that there is. The only thing that improve graphics and performance are new technologies, that have the same visible effect but don't need as much processing power.

Thus one could make an Xbox game with those new technologies that may look on par with Super Mario Galaxy.

So from what we know. The WiiU is indeed maxed out at the moment. But this will obviously change over the months/years.

Maxing something out isn't using every MB of RAM, it's using it as efficiently as possible. Anyone can throw a bunch of unoptimized code at a console and overload it, but that's not maxing it out.
