Furthermore Nintendo has been supporting their 3ds partners well - level 5, square, capcom, atlus etc have received great support from Nintendo.

This is business, and it comes down to whether it is beneficial. I don't see how lifting games such as a gimped mass effect 3, a late to the party need for speeds and multiplats that are on consoles with 80 million users will be a win-win situation for nintendo. Even the likes of Watch_dog Wii U are being mishandled - is it too much to ask for a trailer with in game footage of the game running on the Wii U?

Honestly this doesnt mean anything. At all Japan will always support portables because that is there main platforms. No other place in the world is like that. And besides, we are talking WIi U here not 3ds its always odd that people pull it out to prove something. Now with that being said why hasnt that good 3ds supported translated into at least decent Wii U support? Hell the Japanese studios are actually worse than western ones when it comes ot supporting the Wii U. SE had ONE game Wii U so far. and that was a port game from there western studios Level5 nothing, Atlus nothing, Capcom, two three ports.

Atlus is giving us SMT x FE, but I'd imagine that being acquired by SEGA put in a delay somewhere. SE put out a Wii U version of Dragon Quest X in Japan. Fiven how much it deviates from traditional DQ, it's not surprising it underperformed sales-wise.
