Its not actually the size of user base I was referring to, but rather their buying habits. As Wii has shown, you can put CoD on it, but still, no matter the huge user base, it will sell only small fraction of what it sold on platforms that have user bases that are, though smaller, actually interested in buying those type of titles.

That's where 2nd problems kicks in - WiiU's hardware is much, much, much closer to PS360 than to XOne/PS4, and for the next-gen standards that is really weak. If WiiU performed (as some were hoping for way back in a day, myself included) at the level of HD4850-4870 (or equivalent), most 3rd parties would have no problems porting easily to it, no matter the user base.

bolded one:You can't expect a crappy port to sell the same as the other versions. the wii ports were just too bellow.

bolded 2: wrong. and also, even if wii u hardware was exactly like the ps360, the difference would be far smaller than wii vs ps360. third party's won't have problems to port, hardware wise.

As things stand now, XOne is some 5-6x WiiU (and 8x 360 as confirmed by MS), and PS4 8-9x, and that's if WiiU's GPU is indeed 320 shader part, and not 160 as some suggest. But, sure, whatever makes you happy.
