And yet third parties aren't Nintendo as was mentioned in the post you referenced.  And, third parties haven't exactly been on board with Nintendo consoles recently, just their handheld.  So if the libraries are separate, that probably won't change.

Considering how radically different the WiiU and 3DS are, this shouldn't come as a surprise.

I would argue that it has more to do with install base than it does with difference in the tech.  Look at PS3 and 360 last gen, they both largely got the same 3rd party support yet their architecture was very different.  If Nintendo doesn't grow their console base, and a really quick way to do so would be shared library, then the 3rd parties wont care how easy the port is, they wont invest.
