Honesly, when the current gen systems came out, I kinda felt how you do now. That, and I didn't see a huge graphical leap with the launch titles.
Also, and I'm not saying this to be a dick, but none of the games you mentioned were available for these consoles' (PS3, 360, Wii) launches, and looking at the wikipedia entries regarding their launches, it looks like a lot of what you're talking about, sequels, generic sports titles, etc. were the norm for the last console generation at launch as well.
How close to launch they came out afterwards, but if we're judging based on the announcement for a system's launch, this really doesn't look any worse than the previous generation, though I can understand that you feel the Wii U is doing more new stuff out of the gate.
I'm willing to wait and see what console I will pick up or won't, since I skipped this gen.
