Let's just say this is real (which I highly doubt it is), Wii U had a lot of great games from Ubisoft at its release. Assassin's Creed Black Flag, Zombie U, and the definitive version of Rayman Legends. Ubisoft could hardly help the fact that no one was buying. This is one of the 3rd parties I have absolutely no problem with. It's the freaking bullcrap EA done (Mass Effect 3 and not 1 and 2), Warner Bros (and the half assed Batman Arkham Origins with no online or last story mode dlc), and all those other companies who half assed ports of their games that ran at worse framerates, looked worse than, and didn't add all the content that pissed me off.

I can only hope and dream that Ubisoft gives half the fuck they gave Wii U early in its life to the NX. It's up to Nintendo to make sure the games sell. 

How can Nintendo make their userbase buy Ubi games? They could help advertise those games and even help porting some titles, but making the userbase suddenly interested is a whole different thing.

 

Well Nintendo could actually develop other titles that appeal to the same market that Ubisoft and other 3rd party publishers target.

You only have to look at the kind of games Nintendo releases, then look at the kinds of games they don't to see that there's quite a large range of stuff that Nintendo could try their hands at making to gain more attention from the market as a whole.

Hell indie studios are showing that you don't need huge AAA budgets to make awesome games, you just need flexible tools, ideas and a bit of time to work your ideas into something tangible. When studios like Hello Games can make galaxy sized games, with mountains of gameplay potential or a studio like Media Molecule can make a digital creation platform, with unlimited creative potential like Dreams with fewer than 60 people well Nintendo shouldn't have any issues churning out a bunch of awesome games that appeal to more than just the faithful core Nintendo audience.

If Nintendo had reacted fast enough they could have kept 3rd party coming to them with something. Wii U is still capable of running a lot of the 3rd party games we've seen, just not at the resolutions or with all of the visual features that PS4 and XB1 are capable of pushing.
