Brand new here, but I was at Friday's event. While all the games I got to play looked great, the Arkham City demo that they had at this specific event looked horrendous. The textures were non-existent, the framerate was dipping from 30 FPS to around 15-20 FPS during combat, Batman's cape physics were broken, etc. Beside all of this, they made some pretty odd changes to the actual game itself, even the actual art.

Footage:

Look closely when Batman enters the Wonder City section of the demo. You'll notice that the environmental textures are pretty much gone.

I've got a full rundown of everything here, including NSMB's U and Nintendoland Footage: http://purplelunchbo...2012/08/25/130/

I think the Wii U will be just fine. No console at launch blows you away. Especially when launch games are generally weak. I'm Sorry you had a crummy experience, but keep the faith!
