People don't buy consoles for the multiplatform titles though. Maybe some people do, who don't have money for a decent gaming PC, but most people don't. The exclusives are what matter.
They buy consoles to play the most games that available in the market, which includes multiplats and exclusives. Right now Wii U has zero multiplats only first party exclusives made by Nintendo, which pretty much eliminates the bulk of the current gen's library of titles.
First party exclusives always make up the minority, with the majority of each gen's library composed of multiplats and third party exclusives. Right now Nintendo has zero third party exclusives, and zero third party multiplats, which means they have a very small library of games, not enough for any true core gamer.
I.E, Mad Max, Batman Arkham Knight, Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Need for Speed, The Witcher 3, Fallout 4, The Division, Rainbowsix Siege, etc, etc, etc. These are the games that make up the bulk of this current gen's library of titles, each console will have their exclusives here and there, but by and large, most the library are composed of third party multiplats, which Nintendo has none of.
Which essentially leaves the Wii U fanbase to only the most hardcore Nintendo fans, who will buy a console just to play the latest Zelda game, but sadly that leaves out everyone else.
This is why Nintendo is losing the console war badly.
Like I said, no console has ever thrived with zero third party support, Nintendo is no exception. Because third party not only makes multiplats but they also make exclusives, I.E Street Fighter V, Tomb Raider, etc, etc.
No console manufacturer can ever survive solely on first party development.
