If it were profitable for them, then they'd do it. Don't blame them for being a company.

My SD Card with the game on it is just as physical as your cartridge with the game on it.
I love Nintendo, that's why I criticize them so harshly.

I'm sticking to my guns with the thought that s*** could be better, but it's not. The Wii U should technically be like 2× more capable, graphically and on OS terms in comparison to the Xbox 360.

I really want to think these occurrences aren't on purpose, but it's getting harder and harder to think otherwise.

Am i the only one who doesn't give a Koopaling crap about this? The Wii U visuals are good enough for me, it's the innovative gameplay features of the Wii U gamepad that interest me the most, and then finally being able to experience Nintendo games in HD+360Plus graphics. Most of NIntendo's characters will never go beyond the look of a modern day pixar film, so in terms of just nintendo games i don't really see the need to have all of that extra horse power this instant, the leap would be unatural since the Wii skipped the typical next-gen visual leap and that just wouldn't be nintndo-like. Mario 'visually' is going to reach a mute point pretty quick, possibly 'next gen' i bet it won't get any better than his CG appearance in the Super Smash Bros U trailer and i'm absolutely fine with that.

Heck, look at Kirby, Kirby's already reached his end haha.

I completely agree, but there would no doubt be alot more Wii U owners if they knew it was an Xbox 360 ×2 and it proved so while costing $50 more than that new Xbox 360 model.

7th gen still has good graphics and I know the GamePad and Wii remote are main draws, but I feel like no ones really making the games any better on Wii U for what they could be, so it gives the illusion that the the Wii U CAN'T do any better when it actually can.

I'm stuck in the middle here. I know graphics aren't the end all, but that doesn't mean they should just ignore them.

I have said this before but if Wii U owners want more 3rd Party Support then it is up to us to support 3rd parties when they offer support, even for "cheap ports." When 3rd Parties start making a good amount of money on Wii U then they will support it more

People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

^this, companies only have ears to those with money to offer they'd rather listen to a bunch of costumers after they buy than thousands of random emails on a petitions(but I like petition they're peaceful and don't bother anyone unless they're spammed)

I'm only going Wii U for a while, so I'll be buying any 3rd party game on Wii U that interests me.

I've already bought Tekken, ZombiU, Monster Hunter, Resident Evil, CoD: Black Ops II and Ghosts, Injustice, and a few indie games.

I have more 3rd party games than 1st party. I have Nintendo Land(bundled version), NSMB.U w/ Luigi DLC, WW HD, Wii Fit U, and Lego City. I think the only second party or Nintendo published games I don't have are Ninja Gaiden and W101.

I enjoy the ports, but I think Wii U is getting the short end of the stick since Xbox 360 and PS3 are still relevant platforms. It's easier to port from 7th gen systems than it is 8th gen systems, because you don't have to change much of anything to get the game running.

EDIT: 3rd parties look to be budgeting what they give the Wii U thus far, but they won't be able to do that once Xbox One and PS4 are finally their main focus.

People tend to forget a gaming company is still a company. They blame them for ruining the Wii U where it was never their job to maintain it. Their job is to make money, not us happy, it just so happens they often are the same thing. Once it's profitable, they'll produce games. According to VGChartz the Wii U version sold 0.06 million, whereas the Xbox 360 version sold 0.75 million. Can you really blame them for not releasing GotY on Wii U? Nope, not really.

Exactly, Wii U gamers need to support these titles more if they want more. I bought Batman Arkham Origins over Pikmin 3 for this reason. I will get Pikmin 3 later but if there is a 3rd Party game I am interested I try to buy that. Also 3rd Parties are looking at quicker sales than 1st Party. Nintendo generally releases games they expect to sell throughout the lifetime of the console where 3rd Parties generally only look at sales numbers of the first week. So I recommend to everyone if there is a 3rd Party game you are interested in, buy that before the 1st party game you want

As far as company arrogance goes its no different than the aggressive advertising from back in the day many of us so fondly remember, slogans like "get N, or get out" or "Will you save the girl, or play like one?" that many people wish would make a return. Not so fun when the shoe is on the other foot now is it?

Problem with most 3rd parties is they are pretty much in an absurd catch-22 because they either give us gimped ports at full price (SC: Blacklist), late ports (NFS:MWU), giving them less exposure (COD: Ghosts) or even screwing customers over (ME3/Trilogy fiasco). I bet they're still scratching their heads at why they didn't do well.

I'm not gonna lie, at first I thought this thread was about people's assumption that just by saying something somehow makes it true. The title just doesn't sound right with the equal sign now that I know what it's really about.

Look, I figured we weren't going to be getting too much 3rd party support from the get-go. But I don't really care all that much.

This has been said far too much, but I'll say it again: I buy Nintendo systems for Nintendo exclusives. Whatever third party games get released, bonus.

I mean, as a consumer, I'm not looking at things from the view of the industry. I'm looking at it from a personal level. I can get a whole bunch of great Nintendo games like Mario and Zelda and Pikmin and Smash Bros. I don't need more than that. Will I buy third party games that I like? Sure. I've got Injustice, both Arkham games on the system, Scribblenauts, and Zombi U. But they're, as I said before, a bonus. I don't care if they're worse than other versions because I've only got a Wii U and I'll make do with what I have. I could get a cheap PS3 or Xbox 360 if I needed the "full experience". I'm going to get Deus Ex eventually despite the high price. I don't care about DLC or missing multiplayer. Anyways, that's my opinion.

The equal sign would have worked if the word "A statement" replaced "I'm saying it". I knew what it meant, though.

A nintendo console is usually for nintendo games and the niche exclusives they usually have. I'd say people who want third party support go with the Steam box to supplement.
