Again, the Wii had more major 3rd party successes than the Gamecube did in regards to overall chart success. 6 of the top 20 titles for Wii are third party, and 27 of the top 50. Comparatively, the Gamecube was 5 of the top 20, and 21 of the top 50. So even if multi-platform titles were arguably more prevalent on the Gamecube, 3rd parties did better on the Wii, which has arguably extended the life of the console and contributed in some small way to the Wii's success.

Certainly, Nintendo is the master of its own destiny, but 3rd parties are a huge boon to help the WiiU out. And my argument is focused on if they'll push content very long into the WiiU's lifespan if revenues are not as high as they desire.

Of course 3rd parties are a boon. But I thought this discussion was about multiplatform DLC. Wasn't it?
