Its wiiu owners that would be giving the publishers/developers a chance, not the other way around.

The third party situation as it stands is in a.small part down to specification differences, bit primarily down to people thinking they can get away with shoddy ports and broken promises.


Just one question, which promises?
I actually remember exactly two that where really broken.

Project CARS release and Rayman Legends being exclusive.

Nope. there are effectively publishers to blame (EA), to some degree. But at the same time there have been so many other things to blame. Assassins Creed 3 wasn't such a bad port except for loading time. AC 4 was. Yes. But after AC3 already doing bad. And after Zombi U at least not selling good, probably worse than VGC shows.

One to blame effectively is Nintendo. They've done it their way. Now they are in a position they have to handle the consequences. Not only the consequence of the weakest hardware but as well the consequence of not having features at all more and more people want.

I know guys who'd still only buy exclusives for Wii U if it was on par because they want their party chat and achievements/trophies. Just two examples. Maybe the Nintendo fanbase isn't that much interested in that. But other  gamers are.
