Yeah, it is ahead of the Wii. OBVIOUSLY.
But the Wii was a generation behind PS3/360 so this basically puts Wii U roughly on par with 7th gen consoles.

Just because the wii was lower powered than the PS360 doesn't mean the U is on par with them. Many developers have praised the U for its power. 

Read: Roughly On Par.

Wii U may be more powerful but it really doesn't matter. It's still in the same ballpark as PS3/360 while PS4/720 are on another continent.
