All three will have a GPGPU with the same basic technologies. The difference will be in raw speed and memory available.
This is the same in the PC world and that is why you have a very wide range of specs for PCs and then the engines/games have the capability to turn stuff on or off depending on where your specs fall in line.
I wouldn't think it will be much different here. WiiU will be a low-medium setting and PS4/neXtbox will be high while PC will be a max. Of course this also depends on many other factors like what the base platform for 3rd parties becomes and/or if they simply decide to not work with Nintendo.
Also, the specs for the others are still moving. The newer specs are getting to the point where even my optimism is going away. I mean logically its hard to overcome 1GB to 6GB of RAM and a GPU that is almost 3x the GFLOPS, etc. While I'd think the scaling engines would still be fine... if the max differences between them become true, well then WiiU could very well be without AAA 3rd party titles in 2014 and beyond.
