Nintendo will be fine, especially with the way they've been treating indies. The reason 3rd party games sell like crap on Nintendo consoles is because they are then competing with the near flawless 1st party Nintendo games. If developers want to develop on the Wii U and be successful at it, they have to deliver a high quality game WITH ALL THE FEATURES OF THE OTHER CONSOLES (I'm looking at you Activision, EA, and even Ubisoft sometimes). Nintendo does a good job promoting third party games that they are working closely with (like Wonderful 101), but they do need to do more of it.

Re: A Third-Party "Secret Developer" Gives an Inside Story of Working on Wii U
Considering what I've heard other devs say who actually identify themselves, I don't think "Secret Developer" here is an actual developer.
Re: Feature: Nintendo Games We'd Love to See in 2014
Another thing I want to see is DLC for NES Remix, normally I'm not huge on DLC, but NES Remix is the perfect game for it.
Re: Nintendo Left Online Out Of Super Mario 3D World To Deliver The "NES" Experience
I will take local multiplayer over online any day, but is there a reason we can't have both?
