The Wii U has worse 3rd party support than the N64 did!

I read on IGN that the 3DS has the lowest attach rate of all Nintendo handhelds, while the Wii U has one of the highest of their home consoles. I don't have the link though.

The lower the installed base, the higher the attach rate, especially with young systems.  Because the Wii U hasn't sold many units, there should be very few broken or inactive consoles, which means a better attach percentage.  Low installed bases usually have a high ratio of dedicated fans, as well.  These guys are the ones who buy games at a high rate.  A system like the 3DS, on the other hand, is going to have a lot of casual users because the volume of units sold is so high.

People shouldn't be fooled by the Wii U having a nice attach rate.  It just means it's not selling well and it doesn't have many fans outside the hardcore Nintendo faithful.
