Wii U was weaker than 360 and PS3 and costed $350 at launch, with a single price drop at $300. Unless they got rid of the gamepad and cut price to under $200 it was never going to work.

Pretty suee the Wii U was more powerful than both the Xbox 360 and PS3. Where did you hear that it's weaker?

Wii U CPU was weaker so it 3rd party ports ran worse on Wii U than on 360 and PS3. And Breath of the Wild has mayor slowdown with far fewer NPCs than GTA5.
