Consumers need some semblance on trust in the games. We have been given sub par so many times, its hard for me to actually have faith in third parties. Go to any thread about a third party game on Wii U (you might have to go back to launch window) and you will see people saying that they will wait and see or they are just going to buy a different version because they don't have trust in the product.
When you all boil it down, its still a really complicated scenario with no clear blame and no clear way out. Yes, gamers are at fault in some ways, but so are the third parties and so is Nintendo...
