Despite popular belief, Nintendo games aren't so good that they appeal to absolutely everyone and stop people from wanting to buy any other type of game. The reason most 3rd parties sell poorly on Nintendo consoles is due to their completely different demographics. People who buy a Wii U generally aren't the type of people who are interested in AAA 3rd party games and vice versa, hence why games like AC, CoD and the like sell worse on Wii U than on other consoles, but for a Rayman Legends, which appeals
If Nintendo made a console that both audiences bought, both types of games would sell well and third parties would be willing to support it, just like they supported the PS3 at the start of the generation despite its faults simply because their games sold on it.

this demographic thing is also a myth. and there will always be some franchises that sell beter on platform a,b or c.

And why does that happen, if demographics has nothing to do with it? Random chance? If that were the case, the FFXIII games would have sold more on PS3 some of the time and sometimes more on the 360, but that's not the case. All three games sold more than twice as much on PS3 as they did on 360.
All the Call of Dutys and Battlefields sold more on 360 than on PS3. All the Skylanders sold better on Wii than on any other system. Resident Evil 5 and 6 sold better on PS3. All the retail Sonic games, except All-Stars Racing Transformed, sold better on PS3 than on 360. All 9 the NFS games released on both 360 and PS3 except two did better on PS3 than on 360. How can you possibly explain all of these without using demographics?

saying: "nintendo's demographic doesn't buy third party games/ is too different from the other consoles audiences" is the myth part. got it now?
