Graphically it's a bigger leap over Wii than PS4/Xbone are over PS3/360, yes.

And they're still behind the Xbox 360 in most areas.

Such as?

Indie games, Live event player, cross game chat, demos for every indie/arcade game, built in memory, requesting friends to play a game, playing movies/music from an HDD or PC, sharing games with multiple consoles, Smart Glass, analog triggers, achievements, download speeds, 3rd pary support, voice commands--pretty much every area except graphics (though Wii U is more powerful, there are Xbox 360 games that still look better than Wii U's best imo) and touch screen/off TV Play. 


Only 5 of the 14 things you mentioned are game related. Other things like indie games are a bit unfair considering one console has been around since 2005 and the other is only a little over a year old.

I'd say the biggest thing Wii-U has over the 360, apart from it being more powerful and having more memory, is free online MP and no paywalls at all. I have had Live since 2003 and with the money I've spent, I could afford a launch PS3 for crying out loud.
