Now that they've finally ditched the TEV Unit from the Gamecube and Wii the U is going to see ports from the PS3 and 360 for the remainder of this gen and supply ports to the PS4 and 720 next gen. The confirmed third party support so far is unbelievable, probably the best selection of launch/launch window titles I've ever seen for a console:
Lego City Stories
Ninja Gaiden 3
Killer Freaks From Outer Space
Assassin's Creed 3
An untitled Battlefield
Batman Arkham City
An untitled Tekken
Dragon Quest X
Dirt
Project C.A.R.S.
Darksiders 2
Aliens Colonial Marines
Metro Last Light
An untitled Rabbids game
I'm also expecting announcements of a Monster Hunter title, Resident Evil 6, Call of Duty, Tiger Woods, FIFA and GTA V at this years E3.
And that's just third party titles (although I think Nintendo are publishing Lego City Stories which would make that second party). You can add to that list Pikmin 3, a 2D Mario title of some description, a 3D Mario title of some description, Wii U Sports, Retro's secret title, Monolith's secret title, Super Smash Bros., Mario Kart, Zelda...the list goes on and on.
Nintendo are also making great (and expensive!) efforts to encourage third party developers by giving them free us of Havok middleware, Autodesk middleware and Green Hills Software's IDE, MULTI.
They're also paying attention to feedback from developers regarding the development of the hardware, are paying attention to feedback from developers and publishers regarding their online infrastructure and by the looks of it will be getting a years head start next gen in the same way that the 360 did this gen. The console isn't going to sell as well as the Wii (we're not going to see a frenzy like that ever again imo!) but it's going to fly off shelves.
Tldr; Yes lol
