The PPW of the Xeons isn't much higher than the POWER8 chips though, the 250 Watt TDP is for the top of the line chip. That thing runs 12 cores at 5Ghz and 96 instruction sets.

Except the WII U is not based off the POWER8 cores ...

The point I'm trying to make is that PowerPC in itself is not outdated, as sometimes claimed, but the Wii U's CPU in a way is.
