You can do basically anything on the PS4 that you could on the Wii U

The PS4 from a hardware standpoint bends the Wii U over a barrel. Your average PS4 game would run at probably 3-5FPS on the Wii U.

The power between consoles now isn't remotely significant.

It's a huge deal when companies don't feel like porting games. AAA game companies can't even be asked to properly port games to PC and they sure as hell aren't going to port to Wii U. The power difference is a huge deal and it's a big part of the reason why Wii U has no 3rd party support. The other part being major architecture differences.

Name me a Wii U title that could look better if it were on another console?

Nintendo game graphics are stylized and optimized around the Wii U hardware. If Nintendo chose to port the games to other consoles they could improve the graphics even further.

I'm not an Xbox One or a PS4 owner either. I only play PC games and Wii U games, but Nintendo for 2 console generations in a row has put out hardware that is only slightly better than the previous generation standards.

Here's a list of hardware differences. You seem not to understand the difference between 8GB of memory and 2GB of memory, or an 8 core processor vs. a 3 core processor
