If the Wii U had full support from all the major 3rd parties, would it have competed with the PS4?

More games is always better than less games. At this point though, 3rd parties have been actively moving against Nintendo for at least a decade. It is going to take more than a single generation to repair the three-way relationship between Nintendo, third parties, and gamers.

False, GC  had most of the multiplatforms and Wii had a lot of third partie games, usually not the same ones that Ps360 but it had others, and they needed just one generation to go from their worst selling console to their best one. And of course, neither gba, NDS or N3DS lacked third party support at all.

The Wii came out in 2006.  That is close enough to a decade for me.  The Wii had terrible third party support.  Did it have good, and even great third party games?  Sure it did.  But not the ones that needed to be there.  The big multiplatform hits either never came, or came late.  Yes, Nintendo can easily go from last to first in a generation, but that is not what I was refering to.  I was refering to the relationship between Nintendo, third parties, and gamers.  It is the relationship that is disfunctional, and will take time to repair.  The transition from GC to Wii certainly didn't fix anything.  Nor has the transition from Wii to Wii U.

The GameCube did have good third party support.  You are right about that.  But the N64 didn't, so I could really argue this started almost 20 years ago.  I was actually being a bit generous in only saying a decade.
