Is out of?... American third party support?! You mean the same kind of support they never had since the SNES days?
That is ridiculous. What angers the american third parties is that they cant control Nintendo and quite honestly, Nintendo can survive without them.
People buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games and other exclusives (wich usually are partnerships with Nintendo). This idea that third parties make a difference is completely on the realm of fantasy. Nintendo doesnt need third party support. People dont buy Nintendo systems for third party games. Get over it. Thats why they dont sell in the first place.
The only thing that is out are these fantastic theories that having american 3rd party support would make any difference.

For the Wii U, most of Nintendo's support has come from western developers. There's hardly been any Japanese support. Tecmo Koei who is developing Hyrule Warriors hasn't supported them since the first couple months after launch. The only reason they're developing the game is because they're getting paid. Square Enix has only developed one game for the Wii U and has absolutely nothing else in development for the Wii U while there are several games for the PS360, PS4, and Xbox One.
There have been a lot of recent western released titles and more upcoming western release titles. So Japanese care less about the Wii U than the west does. Guess the Japanese want to control Nintendo too and are angered because they can't, right?

SEGA, TECMO/KOEI, Platinum (not exactly third party, but not nintendo first partty), ATLUS, Square-enix with Dragon Quest X. There are a few of these exclusives coming from Japan. From the west there was Zombie U and that was it.
As i said, multiplats are not what people buy Nintendo systems for. If anyone wants those third party games, you have to get a PS or XB. The third parties offer alot more support on those systems. Half assed ports will not move an audience that didnt buy the system for those games inthe first place.

See thats the rub, they did have TONS of shovelware, hence they did have support. Now im not going to argue what game is ok or not because that is completly subjective and their is no right or wrong answer. All im saying is the Wii has a lot of 3rd party support, whether those games were AAA or if you hated them or not is irrelevant.
FYI i agree the library overall sucked, but support is support.

Shovelware is not support.
Stop debating semantics. Nintendo hasnt had proper third party support since the SNES days. If anything, you can debate that the Gamecube had some, but Wii and N64 were left to dry.
