That's great, but it's up to the developers to take advantage of the hardware. There's absolutely no guarantee that the games will look or run faster on the Wii U.

I played Tekken Tag 2 at MCM on the WiiU and the graphics easily rival those of the Tag 2 arcade cabinets. It looks gorgeous and much better than the Xbox 360 and PS3. Games on the WiiU will look better but they won't be anywhere near the level of what the WiiU is graphically capable of. The WiiU is extremely powerful, true next generation technology, but with games like Tag 2, Bioshock and the rest of the third party titles coming out for it, the games won't look much better since they were developed using dev kits for the Xbox and PS3, and that's 7 year old technology.

That's great for Tekken Tag 2, but I stick by my previous statement. It's up to the developers to make the games look impressive, not Nintendo. Sure, it's possible, and I'm not saying it isn't, but to use the "games will look better on the Wii U" as a selling point is foolish. There were plenty of games that looked better on the Xbox rather then the PS3, which is the more powerful of the two. Hopefully developers start taking advantage of what the Wii U can do graphically instead of gimmicky really quick. I can't see myself buying Black Ops 2 on a "powerful machine" when it doesn't look any different from the Xbox version.

That's not my point. The developers can only make the games as good as the technology that's available to them. Tag 2/Batman will look better on the WiiU but only by a small margin. The console may add smaller levels of detail but these games are ports of old/current gen technology. Also, the Xbox isn't more powerful than the PS3. The PS3 may have a stupid way of processing (Two 256 CPUs at 700MHz) but the graphics card, processing power and processing speeds are of a much higher standard than the Xbox. The Xbox IS also a 720p console whereas the PS3 is a true 1080p console. In a nutshell, the WiiU (WiiU owners) are going to have to wait A LONG time until we get true third party titles for the WiiU since all of these games are ports from old/current generation technology. What this means is that you can buy AC: III on Xbox and it'll look pretty sexy. It'll look sexier on PS3 but will be pretty much classed as hardcore sexy porn on the WiiU. But that's due to game porting. Third Party developers need to make WiiU exclusive titles to show of the hardware. That's not going to happen any time soon though...

Lastly, I don't think using Call of Duty as a good argument case since that game is a 600p game(it's not HD basically, but upscaled to 720p, and also explains why it looks pretty good on a 480p console like the Wii). Not only are the graphics basic, but so is the shading and texture models, though the frame rate is one of it's best points (constant 60FPS). Playing Call of Duty expecting good graphics is like driving a Mini and expecting it to be fast since it has four wheels.
