Let me rephrase, you can't resist the titles coming in future that are exclusively skipping Wii U.
Nope, I haven't seen a single multiplat game that I have any interest in. Most of the non-Nintendo stuff nowadays is pretty boring and generic looking.
This site shocks me at times.

On yer bike! You're screwing with me aren't you?
Each system has exclusives that are interesting me but as far as the Big 3 are concerned I can't think of any games that are exclusively skipping the Wii U that I want. Please enlighten me. I am currently leaning towards a Xbox One for the Master Chief Collection, but my friend has a PS4. I am waiting for E3 2015 for something to prove why I need one of those consoles, nothing has proven that yet.
People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

Is it really that hard for people to realize that not everyone has the same tastes in gaming? Respect that and move on, rather than listing a bunch of game titles that could very well not appeal at all to the person you're talking to.
Personally, I couldn't care less about Metal Gear Solid, Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil or Arkham Knight. The games that are going to make me get a second console this generation (a PS4) are Final Fantasy XV, The Witcher 3, Street Fighter V, and Dragon Quest XI (if it is indeed coming to that platform). My Wii U is still probably going to be my "main" platform, however, seeing how Nintendo games tend to be my favorites. Again, respect that and move on.
Its not that we don't respect your desion its the fact that it baffles me when people say they'd rather have quality or quantity remotely ignoring the fact that two aren't really at odds and you never know what you may be missing. Plus after seeing how support for the wii fell off a cliff you'd think third party support would e something that people crave.

It's possible. We've been hearing about how people won't buy Wii U, because of the lack of (good)3rd party support, since launch. Guess who's fault that is? I wouldn't worry about it.

Evolve and Batman. I mean I could live without Batman (especially after playing Origins) and Evolve will only be good if I can get friends on the same system to play but all those others I can skip without worrying. Even Batman and Evolve I could skip but they are ones I am at least interested in. (Will probably pick up Evolve on PC and skip Batman all together)
EDIT: I guess "colorful jump dude games" are just more exciting to me than these cinematic experiences.

Oh, I'm sure people do crave third party support. Especially because it's an exponential thing; the more support a platform has, the more it'll get in the future, snowballing onwards, and as such raising the odds of games we care about coming our way.
Personally, I'd love Wii U to get every big game, even the ones I'm not interested in, and I don't think anyone here would argue otherwise.
What previous posters were saying, from what I inferred, is that they favor Nintendo titles instead of those big multiplatform titles coming to PS and Xbox next year. It's not at all unreasonable to see that this is possible. It's not fanboyism, it's personal preference.
If someone says "everything Nintendo puts out is automatically better than everything else, just because it's Nintendo", then there's the stupid fanboyism. But that's not the vibe I got from posters here at all.
Can someone define what Generic and Boring actually means, I mean couldn't the same be said for most of Nintendo's patented colorful jump dude games.

Oh no, Nintendo's not exactly innocent of that either, especially with their platformers (which is sad because that's my favorite genre). But at least Nintendo is trying to do different things. The rest of the industry tends to cling to bland looking FPS and action games, and they never really try to push the envelope gameplay wise.
The Wii actually did pretty well with JRPGs. The low development cost justified creating games that may not sell too well in the west.
Did it, though? Think about that for a minute.
Speaking relatively, yes. The Wii steamrolls the Wii U, GC, and N64 in terms of the number of JRPGs it got. It may not have gotten the cream of the crop, but it also didn't get much that was genuinely bad.

Do they or is that just their most popular output.
Case in point yes Ubisoft put out two AC games, the crew , and the crew. But they also out out
Trails Fusion
Child of Light
Valiant Hearts
Might and Magic X
The same could be said of Microsoft and Sony's overall output. I mean Fable Legends for example does a better job at making use of a tablet add-on than any other Wii U title to date which is all types of sad.

Problem shouldn't be the focus but overall genre diversity and variety in all types of games, no? That's something Nintendo lacks and has lacked since the N64/Cube eras and no seems to have a problem with it. I mean Microsoft and Sony's top teams tend to work on big Franchises that really push their systems from head to toe. While Retro's first game on the Wii U was donkey Kong of all games.

Don't be fooled by the number of platformers and RPGs. Nintendo has great genre diversity, they have almost every major genre covered. Here's what they have:
Platformers: Mario, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Kirby, Wario
RPGs: Pokemon, Paper Mario, Mario & Luigi, Fire Emblem, Xenoblade Chronicles, S.T.E.A.M.
Shooters: Metroid, Splatoon, S.T.E.A.M.
Party: Mario Party, WarioWare
Racing: Mario Kart, F-Zero
Action Adventure: Zelda
Fighting: Smash Bros.
RTS: Pikmin
Life Sim: Animal Crossing
Flight Sim: Star Fox
I feel like I'm forgetting something, but you get the idea.
Anyway, the only thing they're really missing is a beat em up/hack and slash IP, but even then the Wii U has Bayonetta and Hyrule Warriors. That's more variety than most if not all developers have (the only developer I can think of that even comes close is Sony, but I don't even think they have more diversity than Nintendo).

Depends on if you care more about how they show off their muscles or how they use them. Sony and Microsoft have a lot of variety but that comes with them lacking in other departments. Nintendo makes most of the games I consider fun, it doesn't matter to me that they aren't trying to shove more polygons into their games or increase the resolution. Nintendo makes the best games in the genres that I enjoy the most. While the rest of the of the industry is focusing on these big FPS Cinematic "experiences" Nintendo is focusing on what I want, and that is fun games. I don't care about the tech behind the game as long as it is fun. So the point isn't to check off boxes, the point is to create something we enjoy.

Well, there are other games from Nintendo. I think what you just said is partly why Nintendo is currently focusing on what they are. Nintendo has had alot of games from different genres, in the past, but by the time that happened, they had already lost customer interest, which is why they focus on what they do.
If people had been interested in the exclusives like the RE games on GCN, the Metal Gear remake, Eternal Darkness, Gheist, etc. in past console life cycles, they'd be pushing for them more than they are.
You bring up Retro, and you apparently think they should be working on something else, but all they were known for was basically Metroid Prime, which ended up not getting good numbers for them.
They don't make the stuff people SUPPOSSEDLY want, because those people didn't buy the entries from years ago.
It'd be like if someone asked for a PS Battle Royal game for PS5, 14 years from now, when no one really gave a s*** about the game. Then we hear about lack of variety. What goes around, comes around.
