No... the average core gamers are not reading DF articles or other similar articles. Otherwise that type of content would have significalty more views. The masses do more reading of reviews than technical nuances.

I'm not moving any goalposts. 3rd parties aren't going to focus on making Wii U exclusives so you can boast about Wii U doing well at selling 3rd party games. Wii U needs to do well at moving multiplats to encourage support. That's what Xbox and Playstation do well and why they get great support.

Nintendo's mistakes are the primary reason 3rd parties moved away from Wii U. I mean 9 million units in 3 holiday seasons? That's pretty abysmal.

Those articles are then copy-pasted across gaming forums all over the internet, and word spreads. We live in a connected, informed world.

There's no reason third parties can't sell on Wii U. They just have to provide a product that is actually desirable. They can blame themselves for not providing that.

Those articles are only read by people who actually read about gaming. Again, the average consumer doesn't do that. Even if they read the articles many don't understand the technical nuances like you and I. You're simply out of touch with the average gamer.

I'll meet you in the middle. 3rd parties aren't providing Wii U with the right product because Wii U isn't providing an 3rd parties an audience with its abysmal sales.
