Umm it is who elses would it be??? LMAO. Whose job is it to foster and make a good system that attracts content? Whise job is it to sell and make their products viable and desired?? It's NO ONE but nintendo.

 

Devs would jump at a chance to put games on the wii-u if it was worthwhile, the issue is it isn't and that's all nintendo's fault.

You mean like developers jumped at the chance to make games like Resident Evil 4 for the Wii after it tripled Capcom's expectations? At some point you need to connect the dots after noticing the inconsistencies between how third parties treat each console manufacturer.

Speaking of connecting the dots, would you be upset if I got your account permabanned?

So Capcom had success porting a last gen game to the Wii. A bunch of devs did that with the WiiU by porting over PS3/360 games and look how well that turned out. Aside from maybe EA, I can't imagine devs skipping on the WiiU simply because they don't like Nintendo. If they can't get a decent return on the system, why waste time and money developing for it? 

3rd party games don't sell on the Wii U because most of them are crap. It's their fault for getting such a bad reputation: they're making the bad games for Nintendo consoles, not the other way around. 

Even if they made a good 3rd party game for the Wii U now it probably wouldn't sell well because of the bad reputation. 

Of course third party devs like to use the excuse that the demographic of the Wii U doesn't buy their kind of games. Well, what's stopping you from making a good and original kid friendly game like Pikmin 3 for example. Wonderful 101 is original, but not quite the same quality as Pikmin 3. Ain't a bad game from the looks of it, but not a great one either(of course for some people it will be a great one, opinions can differ after all).
