To be honest I don't think the Wii U is really that different from the Wii at the same point in their life cycle in terms of software quality. Wii U might honestly be a tad better at the same point ... it just doesn't have the same casual gimmick and Nintendo doesn't have an answer to Apple/Android stealing all theirfickle casual base away.

I disagree. By this point, Smash bros was out, a brand new zelda, mario galaxy, paper mario, fire emblem, and a metroid in addition to mario kart and other titles like warioware and excite truck. I personally think that is a better lineup than what is out now and probably has more variety. Also, you have to remember the timing of everything. Wii got a lot of these things at launch, and then in the spring and then the fall and then the following spring. The wiiu was dead for half a year until the fall of 2013 with a great fall lineup. Breing as dead as nintendo was at such a crucial time was ridiculous. Early in the wii's life cycle, we knew about all the great titles on their way. We knew nothing around the launch of the wiiu. All we knew is that they would come eventually. Who wants to drop $350 on "eventually."
TLDR: When comparing the software lineups, you also have to look at when they released in the lifecycle.
