Just in general, you can look up the specs and some of the Wii U's is better, but most of the Xbox 360's and PS3's specs are better. I consider the gamepad to be the actual Wii U, I find it relatively stupid to release a console that uses a portable device because it often means the graphics of the game must be lowered, it also may creates delays in commands if the connection is bad. There are some ways around this, but it is honestly not worth the time to go into, and for developers it would be a waste of time for them to alter their product to work for such a system. I do not have anything against the Wii U, I just see that it is not fit for such games as Destiny or any game with high amounts of gore, realistic graphics (this does not mean having necessarily good graphics because this could depend on the art style as well), or games that require focus as I see it to be more for leisure, nostalgia, and cartoony games. I will admit the GPU and RAM of the Wii U is better, but nearly every other piece of hardware in it is worse and this does matter, also the Wii U has a small market for violent games and shooters like Destiny. Some of this does not go into vivid detail but bear with it, also I do not hate the Wii U or anything like that, it just does not seem to be a good idea to put Destiny on it.
