Devs have always had finite resources, never stopped them making money off N64, GCN, and Wii.

And because Wii U is the exception, the outlier, not the norm. On every other Nintendo console, third parties were able to sell.

How much games were made for N64 and GC? Not that many compared to the comp, even OG Xbox got more love than GC. Whats your definition of selling? you just cant sell, you have to sell well, and they didnt sell well on N64 and Cube. Wii did ok in the beginning but even that started to fizzle out toward the end. Where everyone else was doing pretty good (looking at you COD)

The proof they sold well is in the fact that companies kept making them. If you're not profiting from a platform, you don't keep greenlighting games on it. EA released 5 Need for Speed games on Gamecube, Capcom 3 Resident Evil games, Sega 5 Sonic series games. Same story on N64 with franchises like WWF, Tony Hawk, and Turok.
