Hmm, we have to disagree then.
While I do now remember you are right, the Wii U got solid 3rd party support until after the 2013 holiday season, I think while as always Nintendo put out the best games, some of the best titles on the GC like Phantasy Star Online Episodes 1&2, Viewtiful Joe, Resident Evil 4 (and the REmake), Tales of Symphonia, Ikaruga and the two Baten Kaitos games were among the best the system had to offer and of the top games of that console generation. Special games such as those are what help make a console enjoyable and while Nintendo will no doubt have its own special games to elevate the Wii U, that lack of titles such as those hurt it, much like the barren last years of the Wii's life.

There were a few third party developed gems on Gamecube, true, but that holds true for Wii U as well, with games like Bayonetta 2 and Rayman Legends.

Bayonetta 2 is technically a Nintendo published game and one they also helped in development of, so like Goldeneye 007 on the N64, you can't really count that as third party since its published by Nintendo in every major territory. Rayman Legends is a very good game but neither it or Zombi U are exactly hitting anything besides cult classic at best. RE4 and Tales of Symphonia are widely held as classic titles that also went on to define or redefine later installments in those franchises.
