I don't give a beep anymore... I don't buy Nintendo consoles for 3rd party titels...and I don't think I'm alone in that regard.

You're not alone... and that is exactly why (along with the inferior hardware and network infrastructure) 3rd parties are so reluctant to devote time and resources to developing games on the Wii U.

Imagine if the vast majority of Sony fans for example ONLY bought 1st party software such as GT, GoW, Uncharted, LBP, etc, along with the occasional 3rd party casual titles like music n rhythm, fitness or party type games, and the PlayStation versions of 3rd party multiplatform franchises like COD, Ass Creed, Madden, FIFA etc sold significantly less than their Xbox counterparts on a regular basis... do you think 3rd parties would still devote as many resources on Sony platforms as they currently do?  Hell no.

This is why Nintendo's 3rd party situation is stuck in an endless catch-22 cycle... Nintendo fans complain about 3rd parties and say they don't buy Ninty consoles for 3rd party titles , and then whine about the lack of 3rd party support and effor on their console when 3rd parties start complaining about the hardware issues, poor sales and lack of support from Nintendo.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
