Well, there wasn't 3rd party support in the first place so that is why there are basically only Nintendo games on there :/

Nintendo promised on E3 2012 that the Wii U would have coverage from third party, including the biggest names in the industry from the west. They failed to maintain said relationships.

To be fair it's not Iwata and Reggie's fault that third parties, particularly EA, promised support and bailed before the system launched, while continuing to support the PS3 and 360. Sales became a legit reason to not support the console after 2013, but what about launch up to that point?
