Why do Wii U Owners Not Buy 3rd Party Games?

All numbers according to VGChartz database:
Wii U has sold 6.1 million consoles and 23 million retail software. (Ratio = 3.7)
PS 4 has sold 7.2 million consoles and 16.3 million retail software. (Ratio = 2.3)
Xone has sold 4.4 million consoles and 12.5 million retail software. (Ratio = 2.8)

With one year head start Wii U owners buy more games but as it seems they prefer first-party.

That's the important part here. Aligned the PS4 and X1 both beat the Wii U in sales and tie ratio. And if I had to guess then I'd say that after the holidays this year the PS4 if not both will have overtaken the Wii U in software sales. Also we can't forget that pretty much every Wii U sold right now is bundled with 2 games, which of course also helps the software sales and ratio.

The Ratio is not depending that much on how long the console has been on the market, early adopters are probably those that buy more software, later buyers have not that much interest and/or money. 

Download ratio maybe is bigger on PS4 and Xone as they have better storage. Myself have only downloded Rayman and indie-games, on the Wii U. On X360 I only downloaded indie-games. On the Wii I downloaded nothing.

Bundled games are no reason. Most people buy games not consoles.
