I miss the SNES.

To an extent. The wii u, no matter how well it does, won't be getting half of the games that pc,ps4,XB1 get mainly because of power, and the fact that support for systems similar to it 360/ps3 are going away. So that kinda leaves it in a bad spot, no matter how you look at it. As a wii u + pc (and ps4 in the future) owner i wouldn't even consider getting games like the next batman, Witcher 3, FF anyoneofthem, any shooter (out side of splatoon) ext,ext for wii u. But it's fine for indy games, ubi art type games, and maybe some fighting games. It's just pretty rough for it, because any ports it does manage to get, will look inferior/ far inferior, so why bother.

Putting crappy ports of games that are available on the other systems on the Wii U is not "support" in the way that the Wii U needs it.  If we're not buying the third party games that are there, it's because we haven't been given a reason to do so.  Any cross-platform game is just going to be better on PS4/Xbone, so the only real support it could use is exclusive games.  Ubisoft was the only publisher that actually was supporting it, and they stopped.  (Not that I can blame them.) 

There are a few good third party games.  But by the end of the geration they're not going to be what sold the system, because that's just the sort of system Nintendo made.  It's "develop exclusively or go home," and very few people want to do that.

I can completely disagree with what you are saying about the PS4. It's a bunch of nonsense. 

I think about it this way: quite a few 3rd parties didn't come back despite the 3DS doing fine. EA, Ubisoft, 2K, etc haven't released anything worth a damn, if at all, for the system at all despite them constantly complaining about shrinking profit margins and the 3DS having an install base of 40 MILLION and growing. So, what sort of business sense does it make to ignore a userbase that huge? Because I can't think of anything. The explanation I can think of is that 3rd parties are so bitter that Nintendo is still around that they refuse to develop for it out of spite and because having to go crawling back to Nintendo after leaving would be humiliating for them. Seriously, that's the only explanation I can think of (implausible as it is) because otherwise the people gamers praise as being the future of gaming are really just a bunch of idiots who have no clue what they're doing.

Nintendo fans usually look towards having exclusives for their system (hence why they bought it in the first place). Can I just say, as much as Ubisoft put effort into ZombiU, the game was meh at best? It also still has a bunch of glitches even after a big "glitch patch" in March of last year, which would never happen in a Nintendo title. Nintendo fans are a bit elitist in the sense that they expect good quality exclusives with fun gameplay and rarely any bugs, which is why if you release a lukewarm game, even if it is exclusive, it won't sell.

I don't see 3rd party games being successful on the Wii U unless it is exclusive and they make sure that the quality is as good as a Nintendo 1st party exclusive.

So it’s our job to grow that installed base to make it more attractive for them to come to our platform.”

i wish everybody would just read that and accept that third parties arent making WiiU games because of the very low install base and low sales, that its nintendo's job to attract third parties and not third parties job to push sales of the console. nintendo them selfs are saying this. 

bolded: this is a baseless claim that should stop being used.

It seems 3rd parties are basically telling Nintendo that install base is the factor between their support of games for The U. A varied user base is what will help a game sell better, not wait for an install base to increase. The increased base won't necessarily help them out because of the lack of support from a certain genre.
