memory bandwidth not including edram makes exactly 0 sense.

Its like saying 360 vs X1 CPU performance not including more than 3 cores.

The eDRAM is not included because you can't just add the bandwidth to that off the main memory. Sure developers can use it to partly make up for slower main memory, but their is no way to add that to the graphs. Even with eDRAM faster memory still benefits graphics performance. In comparable PC graphics cards for example the bandwidth difference between PS4/XOne would give the PS4 20-30% higher framerates. eDRAM will make up for that but not all of it.

And that's why it's really important to note that although Wii-U has 2gb it runs at really low speeds. 32mb of e RAM cannot make up for that(and the e RAM of the XOne is also 3 times faster than that used in the Wii-U).
