Not 100% true.  Even though the Wii U hasn't sold very many units, the attach rate for Nintendo's bigger titles are very high.  If the Wii U had sold a lot more units, I doubt that the attach rate of those titles would be the same.

Of course they most likely wouldn't, you've got a similar situation to the Vita where the attach rate is also incredibly high. However, more users would certainly do nothing to damange their chances of higher software sales.

I was just saying that consoles do not need to have sold really well for the games to sell.  Some games benefit more from larger user bases than others, though.  A large user base is ideal, I know, since it can't be a negative thing for software sales.  

Anyway, my point wasn't to say that user base doesn't matter.  It was that it isn't everything for sales.  Some games can sell regardless of how many consoles were sold.
