@SanderEvers As much as I loved Origins and am loving what I've played/seen of Legends (enough to pre-order) I really don't think having it as an exclusive would've been enough to alter Wii U's future or current status. The market for non-Mario 2D platformers just hasn't shown itself to be that huge.
It's going to take a 1st party killer app to make a big difference. Just my opinion.
Of course if RL would've stayed exclusive then it, along with other exclusives like Bayonetta 2 and Sonic Lost World could've helped convince people they need a Wii U - assuming they come out reasonably quick AND reviewed well.
@Shanksta I'm an older gamer with two daughters and they love Nintendo games.
A while back I was in line behind this Dad buying Far Cry 3 for what appeared to be his 8 year old son. I wanted to tell them to look at the rating but I decided that they wouldn't care. Sad.

Re: Video: The Wii U Difference Campaign Explores Entertainment
I thought it was great. Only the second commercial has disappointed me so far.
