Design side what has Nintendo changed on the WiiU compared to the Wii?

[?????]

I am researching the eight gen consoles and i have got a little stuck on the WiiU i know the biggest difference is the gaming pad but is there anything else just about looks of the console.

Any help would be great.

Thank you

In hardware, the video is capable of 1080p output.

In software, the eShop is a vast improvement over what Wii Shop was. MiiVerse gives a Nintendoesque social media venue for sharing screenshots and thoughts, ask questions and get answers, etc. that just didn't exist on the Wii.

TVii is a joke. I used it once and never went back to it.

GamePad in addition to having the screen also is a universal remote for most TVs and cable boxes and has NFC support (though right now only one game supports it).
