The third party stance will not change on multiplats. Watch. Most of them are western devs and their publishers wont use lower hardware.


I'm not saying the third party stance will change, nor do I expect to. But that's not the point, and I'm surprised you of all people missed it. This is about the ease of development for the Wii U.

Third parties skipping Wii U also has little to do with "lower hardware," and more to do with the fact that western pubs struggle to achieve noteworthy sales on Nintendo home consoles. It could be two PS4s duct taped together and still wouldn't get much outside support because there aren't many third party games that would sell on it. Likewise, the PS2 was clearly the weakest console of its generation (and from everything I've heard, the hardest to program for), yet every publisher was beating down Sony's doors to get their games on it.
