That may be one reason on WiiU, but the 3DS gets enough 3rd parties to keep its userbase happy for the most part, and both Wii and DS had the 3rd party that their audiences wanted. Even if Nintendo gets half of the total software sales on their consoles, 3rd parties would go if they saw an oportunity to make a profit. A bigger problem is that the A and AA games of the past have dissapeared from the home console market, or they have become indie titles. Nintendo always managed to get good support from those, but those have really dissapeared. And because AAA need more than a million per platform to be sustainable, big publishers don't really care about Nintendo systems that much. And those A and AA games survive very well on handhelds (look at the Vita, it survives thanks to small niche titles that make good enough on the loyal userbase).
