Nintendo's hardware sales live and die on their 1st party support. This has always been the case and I feel people are overestimating the importance 3rd party games have had on Nintendo platforms. Nintendo did a rather pathetic job developing, supporting, and executing the Wii U in almost every aspect, which is why the sales are bad for it.
Nintendo does not need third party support to have a successful system.
