Exactly, and this is the reason why i dont buy a Wii U myself, i like Metroid and zelda a lot, but not enought to skip everything else and i cant justify buying 2 console, and less when one if for playing only nintendo games.

I'm pretty much the opposite...I like multiplats like Batman and GTA, but not enough to skip Nintendo games, and I can't justify buying two consoles just for a few Multiplat games. Thats the wonderful thing about Nintendo...they do things that not many other companies do, and they offer an experience that you can only get on their consoles. It all depends what side you enjoy more, but either way, if you have two consoles, the Wii U practically needs to be one of them. 

Yes but with the other companies's exclusives and the third party is a wide range of experiences, with nintendo is like only being able to watch disney channel, nintendo has nothing like dark souls, uncharted, Grand theft auto, etc, there are a million options. I understand that in your case you just like nintewndo too much, but the truth is that nintendo games are very thin/empty, they have no stories, no character depth, no real customization or personalizatio of the character, and are missing many more things.

Wii U is a very hard sell, regardless of the current exclusives. As a comparison: disney/pixar movies are some of the best but it would be a hard sell if you tell someone that that is all they are going to see for the next 5 or so years.

The only story I really enjoyed in a video game was Metroid Prime 2. You had to discover it yourself by finding and reading all the scanlogs. Most video game stories range from horrible to ok/decent. 

Nintendo has a wide variety of genres: 

Turn based RPG: Pokémon, Earthbound, Paper Mario

Action RPG: Xenoblade, Paper Mario

Strategy RPG: Fire Emblem

Platformer: Mario, Yoshi, Kirby, Donkey Kong

Exploration/adventure: Zelda, Metroid

Fighter: Super Smash Bros., Punch-Out! 

Racing: Mario Kart, F-Zero

Rail-shooter: Star Fox

Third Person Shooter: Splatoon

Life simulator: Animal Crossing, Tomodachi Life

Party games: Mario Party, Wii Party

 

You just reminded me the very few options they have, and you should try out more video game "You had to discover it yourself by finding and reading all the scanlogs" this is done in the Souls game, the Bioshock games and others.  But your variety list made me sad, look

Turn based RPG: Pokémon, Earthbound, Paper Mario

So this reminds me, the last FF on a nintendo console was FF 6, there are not Tales games on nintendo console ins Tales of Phantasia, Where is mario Rpg?, No start ocean, no fantasy start... I so sad.

Exploration/adventure: Zelda, Metroid

This reminded me, there are no GTA in nindento console, that alone is terrible, but also no Castlevania, they missed SoTN for no real reason.

Fighter: Super Smash Bros., Punch-Out! 

Tekken?, Souls Caliber?, Street Figther? Guilty gear? Mortal kombar? wow that is depresive.

Racing: Mario Kart, F-Zero

Im not combince F-Zero counts, when was the last F-Zero released? in any case, this reminds me, there are no real cars simulators, and we fall again to the disney Theme, nintendo is great if you are willing to only watch disney channel for that console life cycle.

Rail-shooter: Star Fox

Is Rail-shooter a genre? and is that a good thing? I cant put a list of all the shooters missing in nintendo consoles since the SNES I would need a year or so.

About the last 3 genres, I dont even know what to say, life-simulator, really?

Well you just proved 2 things, 1) nintendo only console owners are missing out a LOT, and 2) you havent played many video games, becuase you think that nintendo games have good story.  

How did mario end up in moshroom kingdom?

Why are there so few humans in moshroom kingdom?

What does Bowser wins from kipnapping peach?

Why does mario ware such unfitting clothing every where, even in space?

Metriod got a recent story recently and it seems like fans hate it

Donkey Kong, not the most in depth character in gaming really.

Star Fox, I always wonder why do you come into action when the galaxy has already been taken overe, but i have never seen why.

F-Zeron, I'll let you post the story for that game, I hope is in the audio logs.

Zelda, link is mute, and dialogs with him from NPCs are short, and Gannon kipnaps zelda, but never kills her, what does ganon wins? 

 

Conclusion, this is all acceptable it you are 12 years old and under, that is why i think the hi priase for nintendo games this days is based on gameplay and nostagia.

You do realize I was only listing exclusive games right? Lol. 

Name me one company with a bigger variety of genres. And please don't glorify Rockstar, the only thing they're capable of making is repetive sandbox games. Good quality sandbox games for sure, but I'd rather see them try a different genre. GTA games bore me after a while. 

Exactly, you missed the point, nintendo is EXCLUDED!, everything is exclusive to all other competing platforms since they have no third party support, nintendo is EXCLUDED that is the problem!!!!!!. I can forget about rocks star, but then I also need to forget about metal gear, because that is not in a nintendo console since the gamecube, and forget about, ace combat, and real online, but why ?????

Note that im not trying to convince you that nintendo make bad games or anything, im just trying to show the logic behind not buying a nintendo console in the current state of things, if one does buy one now,  is like becoming a vegan, you have a very small set of options! some are very good, but most of the time is the same thing over and over, and there is nothing else outside of that.

Sorry for the typos, when am at work I try to type fast and end up with many many typos.

I don't care for multiplat games. If I want to play third party games I just buy them on the PC. Consoles are useless for me unless they have good exclusive games. PC market generates more money already than the console market, it's not niche at all. Of course this also includes profits from MMORPGS, MOBA, etc. 

I played some PS3 games with my friend yesterday and also checked out their online browser. God it was horrible! Nintendo's online is much much better. I never lag on Mario Kart 8 and have no problem getting into a match. Everything is very quick and easy. Already looking forward to play Bayonetta 2 and Splatoon online. The only negative thing about Nintendo's online that I noticed is the lack of voice chat/cross-game chat in their games. I don't care for talking to strangers, but it would be nice if friends could chat together while gaming. 

While I'm sure Metal Gear Solid is a fine franchise (only played an old MGS game back when I was a kid on the PC and liked it a lot), it's not enough for me to buy the PS4/XBONE. 

Nintendo as a company has a wider variety of genres than anyone else. Their games are so good people just don't care for third party games anymore, this was very apparent with the Wii. It had the biggest userbase, but most third party games didn't sell well. Of course this also means their userbase will be the smallest of the three unless they can bring in a totally new group of gamers (the "casuals" last gen). I don't really care much about that though because I've already gotten 3 free games from Nintendo this gen. Last gen there were no such generous actions because the Wii was already selling like hotcakes without resorting to such tactics.
