The Wii U has very little variety thus far. Yeah, platforming fans probably love it, but how well does it represent the other genres and game types?
Ultimately, Metacritic means very little. If you don't like FPS games, for example, do you really care if the latest FPS title has a 95 Meta score? This isn't like the NFL draft, where people often take the best available; this is gaming, where personal preference is king.
Without third-party support, and with Nintendo concentrating on a few genres, the Wii U will probably become a niche console, much like the PSP with content targeted at the otaku culture. Bayonetta 2 and X will mark their strongest efforts to change that, which should be interesting.
