Wii-U needs another price drop and better 3rd party support. I mean, last year it missed GTA V, and games like Kingdom Hearts 3, FF XV, Aliens Isolation, etc. are not being developed for the console. That's a big problem for the system. |
Third party support only comes from console sales. So Nintendo needs to sell the console and why would GTA release on it when its not reeleasing on any next gen console? That's more work for rockstar and their busy fixing their buggy game. Damn thing isnt even out on PC

Umm no, this is a gross over simplification. How did x1 and PS4 have large third party support befiore they sold 1 console? They made systems that make it easy for publishers/developers next gen titles to run on, and to develop for. Not too mention having robust online infrastructure. nintendo also have not dont anything to really try to foster positive third party goodwill toards them and are payign the price now.
Nintendo made a weak system way too late in the gen, when most devs are moving on too next gen engines, making putting the games on the wii-u a head ache. Then there is the gamepad.

This is nonsense. That's not why the X1and PS4 has third party support. The real reason because of the perceived belief that the market and the "core gamer" will be ther to buy the games. Based on history, you can't blame them. But it has nothing to do with power. If developers had reason to beleive that the Wii U was the place to sell the most games, there would be a ton of third party games on or headed to the system.

Console power is one of the most if not most important part,
imagine if you had to create a new engine just to port it the underpowered console where' theresa guarantee of possibly flopping....would cost too much and be too much of a hassle
|
The WiiU runs all these engines, and the next gen engines all tout their ability for "scalability" Power isnt much of an issue. Third parties just want to make easy games to sell. Graphical showcases that pander to people are easy sells
They did this with the Sega Genesis back when the SNES was about. SNES was so much stronger than the genesis that it wasnt even funny
WiiU supports, Phanta Rhei, Luminous, Unreal 4, Cryengine 3 and the new version, Unreal 3, Mt Framework, ect ect list goes on.
