I did not say the scenario was common. It's hypothetical. However, note that this situation is only "uncommon" because of nintendo's approach with the Wii U. Most COD fanatics now know ninty's system is not the right place to go.
I could repeat the same example by skipping 2 gens back. Imagine a gamer looking to choose between PS2/xbox/Gc after the Dreamcast expired. The person really loves Soul Blade/Soul Calibur on dreamcast and wants to play the sequel. He also likes nintendo's traditional offerings from owning a SNES in the past. Do you see how said individual would lean towards a GC in that gen if ninty advertised SCII with link? I don't see how this is so hard to understand especially when you're talking about just the PS4/XB1.
For M$ and Sony, confirming the presence of multiplats is very important. It's pretty hard to dispute that. I for one was just glad to new gameplay for many multiplats but many on this site just seem to only be interested in console war ammunition.

Wrong. Nintendo's approach with the Wii U was to show off all multiplatform games that they expected to be coming. At E3 2012 they couldn't show CoD: BO2 because Activision had not confirmed it to be available on the Wii U, even though it was clearly in development.
The Soul Calibur II example is better because it's realistic. It's also what Nintendo did back in the day, but GC sales show that the criteria you set are far from common. Why should a device that is intended for the massmarket focus on a tiny minority? It doesn't make sense, hence why Nintendo's time is better spent by showing off interesting games.
Of course the situation is different for Sony and Microsoft, but I never said otherwise.

the only games that selling great from nintendo have mario in the title, nothing else is really selling great, most of those games they showed at E3 will flop, even zelda will turn off many people cause of its anime look, and probaby sell the same as sky ward sword.
