I'm probably going to grab a Wii U by year's end, closer to when all the cool 1st party games come out (Wind Waker HD, Mario Kart, Super Mario 3D World, Smash Bros, etc). But I think buying a console at launch is a terrible idea, even more so with the Wii U, since it's going to be until the end of this year before any games that scream "must buy" to me come out.
But I don't think Nintendo "doesn't want it to happen" with third parties. After all, why would they have tried to garner 3rd party support with the Wii U (even though they failed) if they "didn't want it to happen"? There's no negative impact that good third party support could truly have on a console.
Oh don't get me wrong, I don't have a WiiU either. Nor do I plan on getting one until at least Super Smash Bros is released.
Well I understand that. But then again, if they truly did want it to happen, why are they backing down? (example: crysis 3)
:/
