I think at this point if you're buying a Nintendo console you're accepting the fact that third party support will be limited. Honestly, this has been the case since arguably way back to the N64, or the GCN for sure. I don't understand why it keeps getting made a big deal of. You buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games, plain and simple. Even the casual buyers that flocked to Wii bought it for the Nintendo games (Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Wii Play, Mario Kart Wii). Why are we still dwelling on it? Let's accept that that's how it is for a Nintendo console and move on so we can look at how awesome the first party lineup is currently looking.


the problem is,this makes WiiU a console for Nintendo only gamers or peeople who buy more than one console.The typical one console gamer will go to PS4/Xone/PC.

imo WiiU will be like N64/gamecube,a console with some amazing gems but few people have.

The N64 and GCN did more than respectable in terms of sales back in their day. I mean GCN essentially tied Xbox WW. People need to remember last gen was a HUGE anomaly in terms of total hardware sales. The fact that all 3 big systems could eventually pass 100m units sold, or close to that, is insane. That's never come close to happening before and I'm sure never will again. Uusally we have one big 60m+ home console seller per gen and the others do around 20-30m. Anything over 20m lifetime WW for Wii U is fine for Nintendo to keep doing what they're doing and stay in the hardware business.
