I think "software sells hardware" is kind of a false misnomer to be honest. Every system eventually has lots of games to plays and even a fair amount of good quality ones. There has to be more factors to it than that. 

The Playstation/XBox audience is such that they simply like games that tend not to be popular on Nintendo platforms or aren't on Nintendo platforms at all (or anything equivalent). 

And early adopters tend to be the most loyal of any fan base, you're not going to stop any one of those PS4/XB1 early adopters even if you had all the Mario games in the world. 

To get the attention of those people, you would need to have something like Destiny or Titanfall exclusive for Wii U this fall, not Donkey Kong Country and another Mario game. 

I don't believe that gamers fall so neatly into separate categories. Many people enjoy both platformers and shooters, both Nintendo and non-Nintendo games.

most of those people are gonna be your multiplaform owners. as he said those games werent going to stop anyone who had their minds set on either PS4orxbone

Not everyone has their mind made up though.
