With the 9 upcoming huge Nintendo Wii U titles and the lack of 3rd parties on the console, the question beckons, are we missing more by owning a Wii U alone, or by not owning a Wii U?

Bayo 2

X

Smash brothers

Toad treasure trail

Hyrule warriors

Mario Maker

Splatoon

Yarn Yoshi

Zelda U

 

Many other upcoming console games will be exclusive to either PS or Xbox, meaning, to have them all, you would need more than one console anyway. Nintendo are by far the best 1st party developerer and have the best exclusves. Will all or most games eventually become exclusive? Will Nintendo increase their output, eventually providing us with more than enough games? Who knows, but one thing is certain, 3rd parties are purposefully avoiding Nintendo, while Nintendo seem to be increasing their output of games.

And so the main question beckons, now that the war between Nintendo and 3rd party developers has begun, who will win?

Each has good first developer studios. While I agree that Nintendo is the best, as it's my opinion and they make games that generally fall into my preferance, that might not be the same opinion held by others. Both MS and Sony, and Sega back in the day, each have had some great games. 

Third parties are going to ruin themselves by developing overly abundant games that will eventually fail to profit, at least at the rate they are going. Nintendo could fail due to lack of getting out there and convincing people to purchase their platforms...
