It occurs to me that the respective player bases have actually responded differently to the situation. I remember at the time it was happening to the PS3. The player base was adamant that third party support would in the coarse of time materialize. While today the Wii U player base has basically written off the idea of getting that support. I mean you would think that a few Nintendo fans would float the suggestion that Electronic Arts would come back around. Maybe a few months from now, or maybe in a years time.
It feels almost like they expected that this was going to happen, and that they expect that the console wont be able to turn things around. Which begs the next most logical question. Do they already expect their console to fail out of the market. Like the Dreamcast which also didn't get support from Electronic Arts. It is kind of odd that Sony fans struggled to find something positive. While the Nintendo fans have gone straight up negative, and that is their entire argument.
I haven't seen a positive argument for how Nintendo is going to get out of the quagmire. How they are going to get the third party support they need to stay on retailer shelves, or even why it will return down the line. You know while they have been hating on Electronic Arts nonstop. The fact of the matter is they really supported the Wii. Putting out seventy games for that platform is hardly something to turn their nose up over.
