Unless the platform is as cheap as said exclusive (which almost never happens unless its old platforms that don't carry a ton of value), no way.
I knew Wii U was not the best purchase in 2014 because a lot of writing was on the wall by then. However, I bought it for Mario Kart 8, Super Mario 3D World, and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. And I knew I would play other games too. That's not just one exclusive, but a case of about 2-3 exclusives being enough.
