The Wii U had a great launch line up even if 60-70% of the games on there were ports. The problem with the Wii U, is that even if it sold well after launch, it still wouldn't have got as much third party support as the PS4/Xbox One.
Sure it's getting games like Assassin's Creed 4, Watch Dogs, etc, but so is the PS360. What about games like Mirror's Edge 2, The Division, Destiny, etc? Games that are in the future being released for the PS4 and Xbox One. Where is the Wii U version for those? It's going to be the exact same with the Wii U as it has been with the Wii, since they're making money off two fanbases having to do little else other than directly port it to the other machine. The Wii U, like the Wii before it, will mostly continue to get third party support through PS360/Wii U multiconsole games that are still released for the next couple of years. After the PS360 are no longer a viable source of income for publishers and sales are minimal, you expect them to develop a game exclusively for the Wii U when they could make more money on the PS4 and Xbox One?
