Why do Wii U owners not buy 3rd party games? Seriously, why don't they? I think sales for a lot of 3rd party game are terrible...

...By the way I have seven 3rd party games in my Wii U collection of sixteen games so I don't know if that makes me part of the problem.

There are several reasons:

-Some are multi console owners and prefer trophies and achievements

-Others have little income and only buy Nintendo titles because the qualities of those titles is very high

-The port quality of some games is low and usually miss features

-In some cases the game just don´t reach the country (in mine there has been not a single 3rd party release since Rayman Legends on september 2013)

-Some only bought the consoles for Nintendo games

-A few gamers only like a particular genre and dismiss the others, like FPS, simulation sports, fighting, among others.

It is usually a combination of those reasons... now your are not part of the problem, you have a good 1st/3rd Party rate, anything below 30% then you are part of the problem.

By the way I have ALL the poor selling games that put in the opening.
