Do you guys honestly think that third parties will pass up a chance to make money if the Wii U starts selling well? If the Wii U becomes a huge success, why wouldn't third parties support it with games and make money?

Because history repeats itself.

Also, the bolded is hilarious. I would never compare the Wii U with a "huge success", even if it does reach 12 Million units sold by the Fiscal Year ending in 2015. It's not like that is at all great anyway.


I wasn't saying that the Wii U is a huge succes at the moment or that 12 million would be a huge success. I wasn't saying that it would happen by 2015 either. It may never be a huge success. It's too early to tell at this point. 


Its not too early. It is the opposite of a success. In other words, a failure. In unit sales aspect at least.

I wouldn't let them. Even if the Wii U becomes a smash hit, I'd let the third parties sit this gen out. /bitter

Not weird, even without the install base third parties make money on Sony and MS platforms.

It's been out a year and a half. It's too early to tell whether it's going to be a success or not in the long run.

You keep your hope alive. Me and Nintendo accept the facts

A lot of third parties went out of buisness too.

Hardly.

Please show me where Nintendo said that the Wii U would never be successful.

Yes they would, but it's not going to happen. It took six and a half months for the PS4 to sell 7.6 million. You think the Wii U is going to sell six million in six months when it took a year and a half to get 6.2?  It's not even going to sell half that.
