I've owned every single Nintendo home console except the NES and in my opinion, other then the SNES the Gamecube was by far the best Nintendo home console. I owned a PS2 and a Gamecube at the time, found myself playing my PS2 every few months and playing my Gamecube every other day at the very least. If a third party game was on both consoles, I usually bought it for the Gamecube and there were indeed a lot of them.
With that being said, it's still way to early to judge the Wii U. It hasn't found its footing yet and honestly Nintendo isn't doing a very good job helping it succeed but that could very well change. The issue is that no one wants to make games for Nintendo outside of a few developers like Ubisoft for example. Which means that if they want to succeed, they would have to speed up their production unit and start releasing first party titles at a more steady pace. Not one game every few months, one game every month at the very least.
If they can pull that off, people will jump on board and the results will show it. Maybe then they can start re-establishing their relationship with third party devs because even though I believe in the business model I just proposed, it won't keep them going for very long.
