1 or 2 years after Nextbox and PS4 you wont see 3rd party games on Wii U cause it wont be able to run them


This. They will have to make special games, specialized for the Wii U because of the huge graphics handicap they will encounter.

I think that will be certainly true for Western 3rd party developers, however I do strongly believe that the WiiU will be a very good platform for mid tier Japanese developers.  Outside of high profile 'AAA' Japanese 3rd party series such as MGS, RE and mainline FF, I don't see Japanese 3rd parties throwing their full weight behind PS4/Nextbox in the same way their Western counterparts enivitably will.  Hell, even the Wii had decent Japanese 3rd party support, getting MH3 exclusive, DQX and timed exclutivity for the likes of Tales of Graces and SW3.  

 

I do think that if Nintendo do play their cards right, the WiiU could becoming something resembling the PSP this gen.  The 3DS will probably remain the dominant 3rd party platform of choice, but I can see the WiiU getting some significant Japanese support, despite the release of it's competitors.
