Yes I think so too. So I feel like a minority since I almost always only buy first party on any system. Second party sometimes but third party very rarely.

On the Wii I think I bought the most third party games, so this makes me even more of a minority haha. :D

But to leave an actual answer to the question in this thread I do not think that there will be sold more first party on the Wii U than on the PS4. Maybe more than on X1, but not sure. And I base this on my gut feeling that there will just be too few consoles sold for Nintendo this time, so the high attach rate of first party games won't help. If I am wrong however and the Wii U will sell more than I think, then yes, Nintendo will then sell more first party games than the PS4.

X1 I also think will sell less than the PS4, and even though they have a big attach rate for some of their first party, bigger than Sony, I don't think they will surpass PS4 in first party sales. Based on my gut feeling again.

Yes, why not.

Currently they're already at almost 15 million copies of 1st party software (on current hardware of 5.6 mio).

Doubt it against PS4, but I could see Wii U beating XBONE. Wii was the only gen Nintendo beat Sony. Meanwhile they beat Microsoft both times by a hefty amount.

PS4 will obviously sell more first party, they always sell more. The only time nintendo sold more first party than Sony was last generation on Wii so it's factually untrue to say PS owners dont buy 1st party games.

Wii U could only beat X1 maybe, it depends of how many first party games MS will have this generation.

Can't see it.
Rumors is the WiiU will replaced in 2 - 3 years.

Sony and MS are talking 8year life cycle.

Quite possible if WiiU goes above 30M in HW and keep their attach ratio of 1st parties.

Probably.

Doubt it. Like many have already said: Nintendo only outsold Sony last gen. It's possible, but I don't think it will happen.
