The Wii had a shit ton of support but no one respected the hardware. They thought it was cheap last gen tech and dove in for a quick profitable buck. He who has the third parties wins if you have their prime franchises. Nintendo never properly prepared anyone for the Wii U outside of their own company and first party developers. Hell, even Platinum Games is going to get Bayonetta out in 2014 because Nintendo published the game around 2012. It would've been out earlier if Nintendo had planned ahead and just let everyone know.

So you're saying Wii didn't have the worse third party support of the 7th gen trio?


Worst quality and a lack of key franchises, but the most support. Yes.

And you say support like Just Dance and Cooking Mama, (nothing wrong with those games in my opinion, btw) are stronger third party support than GTA? Assassin's Creed? Mass Effect?

Don't get me wrong, I think Wii's third party offerings are underrated, as we did get some good stuff like Silent Hill Shattered Memories, Goldeneye 007, Little King's Story, No More Heroes 1 & 2, Red Steel 2, Tatsunoko vs Capcom, etc, but even I'll admit PS3/360 had it better on the third party front. (It was the first party software that tipped the scales in Wii's favour overall, in my opinion)
