Companies are not malicious. Greedy? Yes. Malicious? Where's the profit in that? Saying a company is malicious is rediculously humanising the issue. As I said above, with the wii u not even being 2% of the market and with it showing very little improvement over the 360 and PS3 (technically) then paying to have a team learn how to dev for the wii u and port the game just isn't going to be profitable. 

If it's not worth learning now, it will never be worth learning, which means third parties will once again be down a "viable" platform, and "forced" to hash it out in a shrunken, super-competitive space.

Yeah. Exactly. That's probably the literal calculation that these publishers have done, hence the lack of ports. It will only be a viable platform when it becomes a large percentage of the 8th generation, and so far a) it's yet to show itself as 8th gen and b) it's less then 2% of the 7th gen. If the rumours of PS4 and Nextbox dev kits are true, then these publishers probably know something that we don't.
