who cares what it is, wiiu owners arent going to buy it because its third party.

Wii U owners bought ZombiU. Lego City Undercover. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate.

ZombiU - launch title, still hasnt hit 0.6m sales despite very little choice for the first year of the consoles life
Lego City Undercover only at 0.62m sales despite the same thing.
Monster hunter 3 barely scraped 0.44m despite being a monster hunter game.

zombiu and mh3 both been on sale over a year, lcu over 9 months, where as games like knack been on sale less than 2 months and pulling in 0.34m is considered "epic bomb" of a game.

Sorry, but you are not fooling anyone, wiiu owners dont buy third party in big enough numbers to make it worthwhile.

Yes, they do. 

Capcom called MH3 Wii U a "smash hit".

LEGO City Undercover has a 1:8 attach rate, similar to Pikmin 3, a major Nintendo game.

zombieu has a 1:8.3 attach rate, mh3 has a 1:11.3 attach rate, lcu has a 1:8 attach rate, pikmin 3 has a 1:8.1 attach rate.

Just because pikmin 3 bombed hard for a nintendo game does not vindicate mediocre sales for third party titles.

knack has a 1:10 attach rate and is considered by all, even sony fans, to be a bomber, that said, zombiu, lcu and mh3 are wiius highest selling third party titles.. lets check out the highest three third party titles for ps4 and xbox one.

ps4:
cod ghosts: 1:2.8
bf4: 1:3.7
ACBF: 1:3.8

xbone:
cod ghosts: 1:2.4
bf4: 1:3.2
Fifa 14: 1:4.4

This means that the top three games average attach rate for each system is as follows:
wiiu: 1:9.2
ps4: 1:3.4
xbone: 1:3.3

Alternatively, if you want to round up to the nearest whole number, those averages become:
wiiu: 1:9
ps4: 1:3
xbone: 1:3

So yeah.. you are still not fooling anyone, but have fun trying to convince yourself.
