The issue is that that is not the only problem.
I'll give you one example of another problem, which I think is a much bigger one: A few days ago one friend of mine who is kind of a casual gamer (well, he loves games but he is poor (just like me) so he cannot afford to go all hardcore like most people on this forum) anyway, he was talking to me about the Wii U and how he thought the Gamepad was "really cool", and how he was considering on buying one, and asked my opinion on the matter. I told him: "well, that depends. Which games do you wanna play?". His answer was: FarCry, Call of Duty, GTA and Mortal Kombat. So I told him: "well, you won't be able play those games on the Wii U". He couldn't believe me until I showed him some websites and then he went on to say that he would decide for the PS3 instead.
So, to summarize, I think that not having all those popular games on the Wii U is hurting the system a lot more than Nintendo (and its fanbase) realize.
