Well, the issue is the most wiiU ports of third party games are usually gimped in some way. Either there is a performance issue or its missing content or it they won't release the DLC for it or its very delayed but if you own any other console/PC, you will get the "full" version of the game. And come on, we all need money to live and continue with our daily lives so if version a) offers a gimped version with missing content/DLC where as version b) offers the full experience and they both cost the same price, who wouldn't go for b)?

Yes, I want to support Nintendo and third party games on Nintendo platform but if its at the cost of buying a gimped version for the same price as the full version. No thanks. Specially since you will be sending a message that the gimped version is all they need in order to please Nintendo gamers

Isn't a 'gimped' version better than no version at all? 

It's actually worse because it creates instant distrust in future titles from that developer/publisher. The distrust stacks over time and releases and in the end many consumers won't even look at the third party titles anymore because they know that version ain't worth it - even if that game is actually great and not gimped in any way at all. Which is precisely why few prople really care about third party releases on the Wii U
