I honestly think Nintendo didn't release much 1st party games because they thought the 3rd party ports would sell the system, and give the 3rd party devs a window where they would not be competing against Nintendo titles, meaning more 3rd party sales resulting in profits and future 3rd party support. However as we all know these games are just late ports so most of us gamers would already own them on the other systems so they did not sell well. The sales of these games (even though they are old) will not convince developers to invest in the WiiU. As I have mentioned in the past, I really think Nintendo must fix 3rd party relationships with the big players or they need to start being more aggressive and establish their own new IPs and/or partnerships with smaller 3rd party studios to provide a variety of content for the WiiU.

nah, Nintendo simply wasn't ready.
They only recently got fully aquianted with their own dev kits and HD development. Knowing Nintendo quality standards, they simply didn't want to put out games that were intended to show off the hardware better when it clearly wasn't. A 2D mario game and Nintendoland clearly didn't need the full power to be delivered.
But they want Pikmin3, wonderful 101 (new ip), and of course other games to be upgraded and taking advantage of many new tech first.
