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

 

Yet the gap between U and PS4 is similar to the gap between Wii and PS3...

Actually it isn't.

Two huge factors, SD to HD, and programmable shaders, separated Wii and PS3. There are no such fundamental divides between Wii U and PS4. 

Actually, the gap between the GPU, CPU, RAM and almost everything else is much much bigger. Nintendo really outdid themselves this time, and whats amazing is that they are the only ones losing money per console sold.

Not true; Wii had a fixed function, 480p limited GPU compared to PS3's HD-ready programmable shader GPU.

Wii U and PS4 are both HD, both use programmable shaders. The fundamental divide of last gen just isn't there.
