GameCube had very good 3rd party support for Nintendo console, Wii U basically dont have 3rd party at all.

Give 3rd party similar power of PS4/XboxOne, give them similar architecture (all points that NX will not be weak and that will have similar PS4/Xbox One architecture) and they will port PS4/Xbox One games for NX pretty easy and fast, also this cross developing in same time for multiple devices will make things more attractive for them. Beacuse of that, personaly I think NX can have similar suport like GameCube had, or maybe even better.

If porting is cheap and fast it could happen. But don't forget nextgen will be close by, and having same games as ps4/x1 won't help get new customer when ps4 will already be close to 50M so it would more be like entice Nintendo usual customer (who don't care much about 3rd). But I could be wrong and the thing explodes.

Nintendo platfors will always sell on first play beacuse of Nintendo games, thats fact, while with PS4/XboxOne you have lotsa people that  buying consoles because of 3rd party not exclusives. But point having 3rd party on Nintendo platform is to be more attractive platform to people who doesnt want to play only Nintendo games, some people want Mario, Pokkemon and Zelda but in same time they want Fifa, Need For Speed, Call Of Duty...thats point, platform thats is attractive not just to hard core Nintendo fans and kids. Also on NX you will home and handheld consoles that will have heavy integration, and that can share majority of same games and features and offcourse great Nintendo games, those are things that PS4/XboxOne dont have. Also we can expect some 3rd and 2nd party exclusives like we having this gen.
