You are including that the Wii wasn't successful in this and that the WiiU didn't have 3rd party support you know? Lines that on reading I think less of what the person knows about gaming outside of his own little projects in all honesty.

Read the OP, he said wii was not successfull to third parties he is probably right, wiiU had very poor 3rd party support too so he is right again.

Ubisoft basically funded the development of their HD games by exploiting the casual audience on the Wii; same with the other western 3rd party publishers to a lesser extent.  At the very least, they didn't lose money because development costs for Wii games were still low due to the fact that it wasn't an HD console and was basically a souped up Gamecube so it wasn't unfamiliar territory to program for.
